‘The Sea Fogs’ represents a highly personal insight in to the life and health of the world renowned author, Robert Louise Stevenson. It follows his honeymoon in the Napa Valley in California where he and his new wife have taken up residence in an abandoned silver mine. Stevenson had long been afflicted by pulmonary difficulties and it was hoped these two months away from the damp of San Francisco would give his ailing lungs a chance to recuperate. It is here where we are first acquainted with the ‘Sea Fogs’ drifting in from the pacific and swarming the coast. Breath-taking in his vivid description of this stunning natural phenomenon, his ailing health hangs low over the awesome sight in front of him. It is a moving short, fantastic in its description and commanding in its beauty, it also offers a profound insight in to the mind of this iconic author and his ability to see the beauty and joy in everything. This short is perfect reading for any nature lovers or those looking for the perfect bed-time read. Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894), was an author with a formidable legacy. You will be hard pressed to find anyone alive today who has not come across his work in one form or another. The brilliant mind behind ‘Treasure Island’ and the ‘Strange case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde’, has had a profound impact on every aspect of entertainment to this day with his brilliant creations. Despite dealing with ill health all his life he was a prolific traveller, spending his later years in Samoa where he fought vigorously for the rights of the natives, earning their love and respect. R.L Stevenson was a character in his own right, passionate and adventurous, his spirit shines through in his work, from his novels to his travel guides. You simply owe it to yourself to experience his creations, he was a true titan of literature on whose shoulders we all stand.

Robert Louis Stevenson first came to California in 1879 for the purpose of getting married. The things that delayed his marriage are sufficiently set forth in his "Letters" (edited by Sidney Colvin) and in his "Life" (written by Graham Balfour). It is here necessary to refer only to the last of the obstacles, the breaking down of his health. It is in connection with the evil thing that came to him at this time that he first makes mention of "the sea fogs," that beset a large part of the California coast. He speaks of them as poisonous; and poisonous they are to any one who is afflicted with pulmonary weakness, but bracing and glorious to others. They give the charm of climate to dwellers around the great bay. How he took this first very serious attack of the terrible malady is indicated in the letter to Edmund Gosse, dated April 16, 1880.
