St Ives

Robert Louis Stevenson

Summary

"St. Ives" (also known as "St. Ives: The Adventures of a French Prisoner in England") is an unfinished novel written by Robert Louis Stevenson in 1897 that was completed in 1898 by Arthur Quiller-Couch. Unable to write, Stevenson dictated thirty chapters of the novel to his stepdaughter as a diversion from his debilitating illness. Written while he lived in Samoa, "St. Ives" was the author's last title.

"St. Ives" is set during the Napoleonic Wars. The book plot concerns the adventures of the dashing Viscomte Anne de Keroual de St. Ives, a Napoleonic soldier enlisted as a private under the name Champdivers, after his capture by the British and during his stay as a prisoner at Edinburgh Castle.
