The words Under the wide and starry sky are part of the inscription on the tomb of Robert Louis Stevenson. This book tells the story of the love of Stevenson's life and the tumultuous path of his relationship with Frances (Fanny) Matilda Van de Grift Osbourne Stevenson. The book charts the course of their relationship from when they meet until Stevenson's death in 1894. Although not as compelling as Nancy Horan's first book, this book is still a beautifully told story.
