My Father as I Recall Him

The pages of this little book were in type and about to be sent for correction to my sister—who had been for some months in very delicate health—when she suddenly became still more gravely ill.  The hand which had traced the words of love and veneration dedicated to our father’s memory grew too feeble to hold a pen, and before the proo...

In the Track of the Troops

Category: Author:Robert Michael Ballantyne

The Gorilla Hunters

Category: Author:Robert Michael Ballantyne

Boys of the Old Sea Bed

Category: Author:novel 

 These tales are at last put upon paper, after having served the demands of a generation of little folk—now grown tall—for stories of “when papa was a boy.” All the tales are founded upon facts, and many are incidents and experiences reproduced as faithfully as memory paints the pictures.
