Inspired by the “Appin Murder” of the eighteenth century Scottish Highlands, Robert Louis Stevenson has created one of the great adventure tales of his time. Upon discovery that the uncle he had never known has stolen his inheritance, young David Balfour is kidnapped and placed aboard the COVENANT OF DYSART, bound for the American slave market. At sea he meets the flamboyant Highland warrior, himself the next victim of the treacherous Captain Elias Hoseason.
