Oxford English Picture Readers 2: Kidnapped

R. L. Stevenson

It is the story of a young man David Balfour confronting the possibility that he is, in fact, heir to an estate of significant value.

His uncle, not wishing to give up his ill-gotten gains, arranges for the young man to be kidnapped and shipped to the American colonies as slave labor. Saved by both a Scotsman and a shipwreck on the Scottish coast, 'Kidnapped' follows Balfour's adventures and trials of returning home to recover his estate. The Scot, being a Jacobite outlaw, seeks to return to France. He assists Balfour's efforts with his native knowledge and contacts; and a friendship develops. It is a nice picture of the trials and tribulations a friendship can survive through differences in politics and personal goals.
