The complexity and range of Robert Louis Stevenson's short fiction reveals his genius perhaps more than any other medium. Here, leading Stevenson scholar Barry Menikoff arranges and introduces the complete selection of Stevenson's brilliant stories, including the famed masterpiece Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, as well as ""The Beach of Falesa"" and Stevenson's previously uncollected stories. Arthur Conan Doyle has written that "" Stevenson's
short stories are certain to retain their position in English literature. His serious rivals are few indeed.""
This Modern Library Paperback Classics edition includes explanatory notes, a Scots' Glossary, and a unique appendix dedicated to Stevenson's influence on the Oxford English Dictionary.
