Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894) was a Scottish novelist, poet, essayist, and travel writer, known for his adventurous and captivating prose. Stevenson was born in Edinburgh into a family of engineers, but he chose to pursue a life of letters, much influenced by the Romantic movement and figures such as Walter Scott. Despite frequent bouts of ill health, he produced a large body of work that has enchanted readers for over a century. His contributions to literature include classics such as 'Treasure Island' (1883), 'Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde' (1886), and 'Kidnapped' (1886). Stevenson's style is characterized by his vivid imagination, keen sense of story, and deep understanding of human nature.
