About This Item
Chicago: Belford, Clarke & Co, 1885. Paperback. Poor. 8vo. Wraps. 164 pp. with many ads in front and rear.
Both covers detached and much of the paper covering spine is lost. Interior is excellent.
This is a very uncommon early American printing of Stevenson's collection of adventure stories, a follow-up to his new Arabian Nights. This copy is from the estate of Rex Maughan (1936-2021), major Robert Louis Stevenson collector and archivist who, as Chairman of the Robert Louis Stevenson Museum, greatly contributed to the preservation of Stevenson's estate in Valima, Samoa.
