David Balfour: The Original Text was originally published by
Huntington Library Press and is now distributed by Stanford
University Press. This edition of David Balfour, which continues
the epic story begun in Kidnapped, is based upon the original
manuscript at Harvard University's Houghton Library, and
presents-for the first time-the text as Robert Louis Stevenson
wrote it. The introductory essay by Barry Menikoff restores the
novel to its rightful place, alongside Kidnapped, as Stevenson's
finest achievement in fiction, while Menikoff's extensive notes and
glossary open up the political, cultural, and linguistic world of
eighteenth-century Scotland for today's reader. Striking color
illustrations from the original oil paintings of N.C. Wyeth,
created in 1924, accompany the text.
