Catriona

"A good conscience is eight parts of courage." -Robert Louis Stevenson, Catriona




Catriona: A Sequel to "Kidnapped-Being Memoirs of the Further Adventures of David Balfour at Home and Abroad" (1892) by Robert Louis Stevenson is a companion volume to the author's classic Kidnapped. But it falls more into the category of "historical romance" than its predecessor. Unlike the daring adventures of Kidnapped, Stevenson here attempts to rely instead on building strong characters and a complex plot.




Catriona picks up where its prequel ended-at 2 pm on August 25, 1751. It begins as the hero David Balfour, is setting off to win justice for a friend who has been falsely arrested. While not successful in freeing his friend, David's efforts lead him to Catriona and a series of adventures around Europe and involve them in the continental politics of their generation.
