IT was in 1880 and 1881 that Stevenson wrote Treasure Island, which was begun at Braemar, Scotland, where his father aided him with suggestions from his own seafaring experiences. It was finished in the course of his second visit to Davos in the winter of 1881-82. In 1878 he had published his first book, The Island Voyage, which was followed by Travels with a Donkey. He had also written the tales known as "The New Arabian Nights," the essays collected under the title of Virginibus Puerisque, and other stories and essays, but Treasure Island, which appeared when the author was thirty-one, was his first long romance, and it brought to him his first taste of popular success, when the story was published in book form. It was in October, 1881, that this story began to appear as a serial in an English magazine called Young Folks. The title then was "The Sea Cook, or Treasure Island," but when published in book form in May, 1883, the name was simply Treasure Island, a name which has taken its place among the titles of far older classics. I remember well that as a boy in England I was obliged to satisfy my craving for sea-stories with books like Captain Cook's Voyages and The Mutiny of the "Bounty " The latter dreadful tale must have been read by Stevenson and perhaps afforded some suggestions. It has seemed to me that before Treasure Island there was no really great sea-tale for younger readers. The immortal Swiss Family Robinson and Robinson Crusoe belonged to a different category, and Dana's Two Years before the Mast was little known to English youth. It seems to me fair to say that Treasure Island is the only great modern classic written especially for younger readers. I find that girls enjoy Treasure Island just as well as boys. The book stands alone in its wonderfully vivid and dramatic story-telling, which is characterized throughout by an entirely sane and wholesome tone and purpose. When I imagine myself again a boyish reader comparing this story with the old favorites like Robinson Crusoe, Gulliver s Travels, The Pilgrim's Progress, The Swiss Family Robinson, and Tom Brown at Rugby - the first three not written originally for children - I find myself impelled to rank Treasure Island as an equal and in some points as a superior. This may seem heresy, but it is the result of a peculiarly close and sympathetic study of these and other famous books for boys and girls. Although this was Stevenson's first long romantic story, he showed the born story-teller's instinct for a beginning which seizes upon the reader at once. We are absorbed in the first few lines and the interest deepens as we go on. How it moves and holds us - the advent of that precious trio, Billy Bones, Old Pew, and Black Dog, and their performances at the "Admiral Benbow." It is so apt an introduction to the strange tale of after happenings. And from a boy's viewpoint the end is perfect. While children, as a rule, do not understand the value of money, yet they keenly appreciate the realization of a climax where the boy hero can fairly bury himself in golden coins. It is natural that the last chapter should be read with a tinge of envy and a yearning to lay hands upon Jim Hawkins's bags of gold. And the romantic glamour of the situation appeals to older readers also who will do well to turn oftener from the average novel of the day to this most delightful example of ideal realism. It is hard to understand why Stevenson preferred to have the story published first without illustrations. With his keen artistic sense he must have felt that fitting illustration would be a gain. The text is full of effective subjects and the period and costumes romantic in the extreme. We know that the author was greatly disappointed at the mild approval given to the story in its serial publication.

The Black Arrow: A Tale of the Two Roses is an 1888 novel by Robert Louis Stevenson. It is both an historical adventure novel and a romance novel. The Black Arrow tells the story of Richard (Dick) Shelton during the Wars of the Roses: how he becomes a knight, rescues his lady Joanna Sedley, and obtains justice for the murder of his father, Sir Harry Shelton. Outlaws in Tunstall Forest organised by Ellis Duckworth, whose weapon and calling card is a black arrow, cause Dick to suspect that his guardian Sir Daniel Brackley and his retainers are responsible for his father's murder. Dick's suspicions are enough to turn Sir Daniel against him, so he has no recourse but to escape from Sir Daniel and join the outlaws of the Black Arrow against him. This struggle sweeps him up into the greater conflict surrounding them all. ============ KEYWORDS/TAGS: adventure books - adventure books for men - adventure book for girls - adventure book for boys - adventure book series - adventure book adult - adventure book boys - adventure book gift - adventure stories for adults - adventure stories for boys - adventure stories for young boys - adventure stories for kids
