Excerpt from Echoes of Robert Louis Stevenson It Is hardly an exaggeration to say that thousands of persons, young and old, would gladly walk across our continent if their reward were to hear Robert Louis Stevenson's living voice. It is fairly possible to imagine how he looked, and this possibility remains open to future generations. But speech is music of the heart and soul. No one dies in personal memory as long as there is even one person left behind whose memory retains the sound of the voice, - an experience which, unfortunately, is incommunicable. But we of the outer circle of friends cannot have this memory. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
