Kidnapped (Collins Classics)
By Robert Louis Stevenson HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best loved, essential classics.
I have seen wicked men and fools, a great many of both and I believe they both get paid in the end; but the fools first.
Orphaned as a young teenager, Lowlander David Balfours only relative is his guardian and uncle, Ebenezer. Ill thought of and disliked by many, its not long before Ebenezer betrays his nephew and David finds himself trapped aboard a ship.
He soon strikes up a friendship with fugitive stranger and Scottish Highlander Alan Breck and becomes embroiled in the fierce Jacobite struggle against English rule. A tale of high seas adventure, loyalty and fighting, the complex relationship between Alan and David stops Stevensons novel from becoming just a boys adventure novel.
