Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Stevenson at Manasquan When I came face to face with Robert Louis Stevenson it was the realization of one of my most cherished dreams. This was at Manasquan, a village on the New Jersey coast, where he had come to make a farewell visit to his old friend Will Low, the artist. Mr. Low had taken a cottage there that summer while working on his series of Lamia drawings for Lippincott´s, and Stevenson, hearing that we were on the other side of the river, sent word that he would come to see us on the morrow. "Stevenson is coming," was announced at the breakfast-table as calmly as though it were a daily occurrence. Stevenson coming to Manasquan! I was in my ´teens, was an enthusiastic student of poetry and mythology, and Stevenson was my hero of romance. Was it any wonder the intelligence excited me? My husband, the late Wyatt Eaton, and Stevenson, were friends in their student days abroad, and it was in honor of those early days that I was to clasp the hand of my favorite author.
