More about the book

The book explores the life of Robert Michael Ballantyne, a Scottish author and artist known for his prolific writing and adventure novels. After his father's printing business failed, he ventured to Canada at 16, becoming a fur trader. His experiences there fueled his literary career, leading to the creation of over 100 books. Notably, his work "The Coral Island" significantly influenced the adventure genre, inspiring later authors like Robert Louis Stevenson. Ballantyne's dual talents in writing and art highlight his diverse contributions to 19th-century literature.
