It is with much diffidence that the author now lays before Your Majesty, an Account of the arduous national undertaking of erecting a Light-house on the Bell Rock, -a sunk reef, lying about eleven miles from the shore, and so situated as to have long proved an object of dread to mariners on the eastern coast of Scotland, especially when making for the Friths of Forth and Tay. This edifice being of the utmost consequence to the safety of Your Majesty's Ships of War upon the North Sea station, and of the commercial shipping of this part of the empire, he presumes to hope for Your Majesty's favourable acceptance of his work. From the known partiality, also, of Your Majesty for naval excursions, which so recently led the Royal Squadron within a comparatively short distance of the Bell Rock Light-house, in the course of Your Majesty's most gracious Visit to your ancient Kingdom of Scotland, he flatters himself that Your Majesty may feel an additional interest in the subject of this volume

1910. Stevenson is best remembered for Treasure Island, Kidnapped, and The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. We are travelers in the wilderness of the world-travelers with a donkey. So Robert Louis Stevenson wrote to a friend on completing this enchanting account of a journey in rural France in 1878. Alone with his pack-donkey Modestine, and showing total disregard for discomfort, Stevenson relishes to the full his walking tour of the Cevennes. Freedom was the important thing: I blessed God that I was free to wander, free to hope, and free to love." This diary will find many kindred spirits. In the summer of 1876, Robert Louis Stevenson made a trip by canoe from Antwerp through northern France. Accompanying him was his friend Walter Simpson. Written when he was twenty five and published in May of 1878, An Inland Voyage was Stevenson's first published work. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing.

¿Estarías dispuesto a vender tu alma al diablo por conseguir lo que siempre has deseado? "El diablo de la botella" nos relata la historia de Keawe, un hombre pobre, ambicioso y muy activo, que decide tomar el camino fácil hacia la felicidad creyendo burlar las diabólicas consecuencias. Keawe terminó siendo dueño de una botella que con solo un deseo, la riqueza, abundancia y poder caerían a sus pies. Todo dará un giro inesperado cuando el amor llegue a su vida y se dé cuenta realmente lo que ha sacrificado por la avaricia; las diabólicas consecuencias tomarán el rol protagónico de esta historia, haciendo a los protagonistas, pobres infelices y condenados al infierno eterno. Una historia ideal para todas las edades, de lectura fácil, rápida y de imposible despegarse sin llegar al final. Nos atrapa y nos hace sufrir por sus personajes, a quienes el amor los hace tomar decisiones en las que el ser humano quisiera nunca verse envuelto. El sacrificio hacia el prójimo, el amor verdadero, el miedo a lo desconocido, la avaricia hacia lo material, el desentenderse del dolor ajeno a cambio de la felicidad propia; entre otros, son los temas por los que Stevenson nos pasea a lo largo de la lectura. Una narración que no pasa de moda, la que se puede asemejar a casi cualquier situación en cualquier época, en la que el bien y el mal, la verdad y la mentira y lo moral ante lo inmoral luchan por sobreponerse el uno sobre el otro.

La obra adopta un tono crítico y una reflexión moral del protagonista hacia el dinero y la ambición.Stevenson tenía 29 y unos pocos meses cuando comenzó a escribir La isla del tesoro, su primer éxito como novelista. Los quince primeros capítulos fueron escritos en Braemar, en las Tierras Altas escocesas, en 1881. Era un verano tardío, frío y lluvioso y Stevenson estaba con cinco miembros de su familia de vacaciones en una casita en el campo. El pasatiempo de aquellos días era escribir una historia entre todos, pasando el manuscrito de uno a otro, en bloques de quince minutos.
