"For in emigration the young men enter direct by the shipload on their heritage of work; empty continents swarm, as at the bosun's whistle, with industrious hands, and whole hew empires are domesticated to the service of man." -Robert Louis Stevenson, The Amateur Emigrant The Amateur Emigrant from the Clyde to Sandy Hook (1895), by Robert Louis Stevenson is the first book (followed by Across the Plains and the Silverado Squatters) in a trilogy the author wrote about his journey from Scotland to California in 1879-1880. In this volume, he describes the first leg of his trip, made by ship from Europe to New York City. Stevenson depicts the crowded conditions he experienced in steerage with others who, like him, were poor and sick. At the conclusion, the author also offers his usual sharp-eyed observations, which, in this case are of New York and New Yorkers.

This wide-ranging collection is the first to set Robert Louis Stevenson in detailed social, political and literary contexts.The book takes account of both Stevenson's extraordinary thematic and generic diversity and his geographical range. The chapters explore his relation to late nineteenth-century publishing, psychology, travel, the colonial world, and the emergence of modernism in prose and poetry. Through the pivotal figure of Stevenson, the collection explores how literary publishing and cultural life changed across the second half of the nineteenth century. Stevenson emerges as a complex writer, author both of hugely popular boys' stories and of seminally important adult novels, as well as the literary figure who debated with Henry James the theory of fiction and the nature of realism.The collection shows how interest in the unconscious and changes in the conception of childhood demand that we re-evaluate our ideas of his writing. Individual essays by international experts trace Stevenson' lit

Excerpt from I Can Remember Robert Louis Stevenson In November 1921, after the Anniversary Dinner, held in Edinburgh, of our Robert Louis Stevenson Club, and all the talk of Stevenson that preceded and followed that brilliant occasion, I realised that there were in Edinburgh not only many Stevenson lovers in the literary sense, but also men and women who could personally remember Stevenson as boy and man. And it occurred to me that in the same way there were men and women in other parts of the world who could remember him in the later chapters of his life, and if such a collection of living memories of the dead writer could be gathered, they would not only be a valuable asset to the biographical literature of our day, but would serve to draw together the literary sympathies of Stevenson lovers all the world over. On the one hand, there was this untapped source of vivid and personal information, and on the other hand, - to use Stevenson's own words about another Edinburgh scheme, of his day, - 'something fell to be done' to set our Club on a really literary footing. With these thoughts in my mind, I suggested the idea of the Book to a meeting of The Robert Louis Stevenson Club Executive, which approved of it, and appointed a Book SubCommittee, - Mr King Gillies, B.A., Mr Charles Guthrie, Mr Dods Hogg, Mr John H. Lorimer, R.S.A., Mr Laing Waugh, and myself (convener). We were fortunate in securing the sympathetic interest in our project of the Firm of W. and R. Chambers, by whom the book is published. The large and cordial response which came in reply to my editorial letters requesting contributions was a delightful encouragement. My first thanks are due to all these contributors who thus materialised the idea, by sending their personal memories to form this combined tribute from so many, - relatives, intimate friends, chance acquaintances, schoolfellows, companions of early years, comrades of later days, - all of whom can say 'I Can Remember Robert Louis Stevenson.'

"A collection of 32 poems...A short introductory biography...gives an insightful glimpse into his life and how it influenced his poems....illustrations convey the poetic notion of a romantic childhood memory, with pink-cheeked children...Muted colors, rich with warm golden accents among the dominant green tone, are a peaceful accompaniment to the poems."--School Library Journal. "These poems...are colorfully illustrated and notable for their detailed brushstrokes of gentle colors. They interpret the verse in a style that is fanciful without looking too juvenile for a middle-grade audience. Younger children will find the poems and illustrations to their liking as well."--Booklist.
