The Black Arrow is a 15th century war story by Robert Louis Stevenson . The House of Lancaster and the House of York go into the battle for the crown of England.
December Love by Robert Hichens, A Romance Novel set in England not so many years ago. **** He was a very ancient hand at the social game; he loved to play it; and he wanted as many as possible to join in, provided, of course, that they were "suitable" for such a purpose. Perhaps he slightly resembled "the world's governess," as a witty woman had once called him. But he was really a capital fellow and a mine of worldly wisdom. On the occasion in question, after chatting for about an hour, he happened to mention Lady Sellingworth?"Adela Sellingworth," as he called her. Craven did not know her, and said so in the simplest way.
"I don't know Lady Sellingworth."
Braybrooke sat for a moment in silence looking at Craven over his carefully trimmed grey and brown beard.
"How very strange!" he said at last.
"Why is it strange?"
"All these years in London and not know Adela Sellingworth!"
Explorations In Australia by John Forrest, Illust by G.F. Angas
Sampson Low, Marston, Low, & Searle London 1875
Important account of Forrest?s successful exploration, in which he became the first person to cross the Australian continent West to East. Full accounts of Forrest?s two expeditions of 1869 and 1870 as well as the main account of his most important expedition in 1874 across the interior, from the west coast to the Telegraph Line. A work of great significance which should be in everyones collection of Australiana.
Forrest began his first expedition as Government Surveyor in 1869, at the age of twenty-one, setting out from Perth in search of traces of Leichhardt. The expedition ascertained that rumours which referred to a party of white men being slain by local Aborigines twenty years before did not relate to Leichhardt?s party but to Robert Austin?s expedition. Forrest went on to the east of Lake Barlee to Mount Weld before returning to Perth.On Forrest?s return another expedition in search of Leichhardt was mooted - this time to travel from the Murchison River to Carpentaria. However lack of funds prevented so extensive an expedition, and instead it was proposed that Forrest cross from Perth to Adelaide, around the Great Australian Bight, in search of farming land. By taking the coastal route, the crossing was achieved by Forrest in an extraordinary five months. This feat, which had taken Eyre over twelve months to complete, is a testament to Forrest?s formidable abilities as an explorer and professional surveyor, and to that of his brother Alexander who was his second-in-command.The success of Forrest?s first two expeditions spurred him on in 1874 to take on the last great challenge of Australian inland exploration: to ascertain the nature of the interior by crossing the continent from Perth to the Telegraph Line which ran between Darwin and Adelaide
An Inland Voyage is regarded as the fist piece of outdoor literature. Written by Robert Louis Stevenson, it is his travel account from a canoeing trip along the River Oise through France and Belgium with his friend Sir Walter Grindlay Simpson.
Weir of Hermiston by Robert Louis Stevenson is regarded by many in the literary world as one of the greatest unfinished masterpieces. It tells the story of Archie Weir, who is banished by his severe father, a judge, to live in the family's country estate.
The Silverado Squatters is Robert Louis Stevenson's personal account from his travels to Monterey California in 1880. It was the period when Stevenson was broke and had just gotten married.
Quote, "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 be first makes mention of "the sea fogs," that beset a large part of the California coast."
