The Library After Dark

Adventure

Across the Plains, with Other Memories and Essays

by Robert Louis Stevenson

Stevenson crosses America by emigrant train and then travels through memory, dreams, and essays. Watch both what he sees and what his era prevents him from seeing clearly. A window is a perspective, not the whole world.
