Excerpt from The Life of Robert Louis Stevenson The duty of writing this book was finally entrusted to me because during the last two and a half years before my cousin's death I had on his invitation made vama my home and the point of departure for my journeys, and, apart from the members of his own fam ily, I had been throughout that period the only one of his intimate friends in touch with every side of his life. In order to present the book in a single volume it has been necessary to reduce it in bulk, but this oppor tunity has been used solely for the purpose of lighten ing it and rendering it generally more readable. Part of the matter omitted, such as the Vailima Prayers, has now been published elsewhere: the chief part of the re mainder related either to Samoan politics or contained details concerning some of Stevenson's minor works, which were of interest only to the special student who can still find what he needs in the unabridged edition. Some quotations haye been abridge'dand a few trivial paragraphs omittéd'w The framework has been slightly cut down: the general dfieéé of; The picture has, so far as I could manage, remained: tm'aitered.

Excerpt from The Life of Robert Louis Stevenson, Vol. 1 of 2 Many persons, both friends and strangers to me, have rendered my task far easier than l could have hoped. There is hardly one of Stevenson's intimate friends but has helped me in a greater or less degree, and if l were here to repeat my thanks to all to whom l am indebted for information, i should have to record more than sixty names. Those to whom we owe most are otten those whom formally we thank the least; and to Mrs. Steven son and Mr. Lloyd Osbourne 1 can never express my indebtedness for their suggestions and their knowledge, their confidence, their patience, and their encourage ment. But, of course, for everything that is here printed l alone am responsible. The references to Stevenson's writings are necessarily to the pages of the Edinburgh Edition, as being the most complete English collection of his works.

Excerpt from Echoes of Robert Louis Stevenson It Is hardly an exaggeration to say that thousands of persons, young and old, would gladly walk across our continent if their reward were to hear Robert Louis Stevenson's living voice. It is fairly possible to imagine how he looked, and this possibility remains open to future generations. But speech is music of the heart and soul. No one dies in personal memory as long as there is even one person left behind whose memory retains the sound of the voice, - an experience which, unfortunately, is incommunicable. But we of the outer circle of friends cannot have this memory. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Robert Louis Stevenson: A Record, an Estimate, and a Memorial A few words may here be allowed me to explain one or two points. First, about the facsimile of last page of Preface to Familiar Studies of Men and Books. Stevenson was in Davos when the greater portion of that work went through the press. He felt so much the disadvantage of being there in the circumstances (both himself and his wife ill) that he begged me to read the proofs of the Preface for him. This illness has record in the letter from him (pp. 28-29). The printers, of course, had directions to send the copy and proofs of the Preface to me. Hence I am able now to give this facsimile.
