Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Robert Louis Stevenson: A Study A Valediction Days are drooping, thought is dumb, Crept into a cave; Winter terrors thickly come On the haunted wave: Light and delight have left What in their stead, Since the nations kneel about the bravely fallen head? Black the deadly clouds o'errush All our heaven in him. Power in many a boreal flush, Play of starry whim. Ere the king reed is cut. Ere the full strain, Lo, the fickle faun is gone; the woods are bare again. Who her truant to the North Chiding, can restore? Which of cities, leaning forth, Touch him as before? Where serried Cant effrays Art, as of old. Nevermore aloft that loved oriflamme of gold. Would that he might yet delay While the onset lowers, Would he had not borne away Ardor his and ours! O song upon the march Else whither blown! The battle-dread is on us now, riding afield alone. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from A Bibliography of the Works of Robert Louis Stevenson Stevenson possessed a singularly healthy mind and a tem perament which enabled him to face the ills of life with unflinching courage. Constant ill-health, the frequent apprehension of poverty, and a series of discouragements which far exceeded the ordinary allowance of humanity, were met, at one time with the humorous acquiescence of a Thomas More, at another with a deeper fortitude which threw an answering glove into the face of Destiny. Courage with him was the virtue which all the others presuppose, and it requires little reflection to perceive that superiority to weakness or vice cannot exist without it. It is this quality which runs like a golden thread through his life' and work, and which is the secret of his charm. No writer has ever thrown more of himself into his works; no one has illumined his surroundings more vividly with the rays of his individuality; and it would be possible to arrange his essays in an order which would portray his inward and outward life from childhood to middle age.

Excerpt from The Works of Robert Louis Stevenson, Vol. 24 IN the two years and odd months since his return from California, Stevenson had made no solid gain of health. His winters, and especially his second winter, at Davos had seemed to do him much temporary good but during the summers in Scotland he had lost as much as he had gained, or more. Loving the Mediterranean shores of France from of old, he now made up his mind to try them once again. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
