Robert Louis Stevenson
1850–1894
Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894) was born in Edinburgh into a family of lighthouse engineers, trained in law, and turned to writing travel essays and stories. Treasure Island (1883), A Child’s Garden of Verses (1885), Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886) and Kidnapped (1886) made him famous. In poor health all his life, he travelled in search of a climate he could bear and settled in 1890 in Samoa, where he died at forty-four.
