reviewed Fanny Stevenson on + 3 more book reviews


This is the remarkable story of Robert Louis Stevenson's wife, Fanny. Robert Louis Stevenson wrote such classic novels as Treasure Island and Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde etc.
She was an American woman eleven years his senior who influenced every facet of his life and work and who remains in her own right one of the most truly independent and free-spirited women of her generation.
