The Black Arrow

A classic adventure story from one of the great masters of the genre, The Black Arrow by Robert Louis Stevenson is a rousing tale of treachery, romance and swordsmanship set against the turbulent backdrop of the Wars of the Roses. First published in 1888, it remains one of Stevenson's most entertaining and action-packed novels, following young Dick Shelton as he navigates shifting loyalties, dangerous enemies and the mystery of the Black Arrow brotherhood.

This edition is part of the King's Treasuries of Literature series, published by J. M. Dent & Sons of London under the general editorship of Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch, one of the most respected literary figures of the early twentieth century. A handsome and well-produced series that brought classic literature to generations of readers.
