About this book
Sixteen papers of childhood memories and portraits of people Robert Louis Stevenson knew fill this volume, which he dedicates to his mother. They run from The Foreigner at Home, on the divisions between peoples within Britain, through Some College Memories, an old Scotch gardener, Thomas Stevenson, talk and talkers, and the character of dogs, to literary pieces on Dumas and romance. Stevenson advises reading them straight through, since a thread of meaning binds them. Earlier printings appeared in magazines such as The Cornhill.
