Unfortunately Dick’s guardian is Sir Daniel, he’s a rogue although supposedly a gentleman. Sadly it didn’t come up to the standards of Treasure Island, Kidnapped or even its sequel Catriona.ĭick Shelton’s father was murdered when Dick was younger and now that he is grown up Dick wants to get justice for his father. It’s set during the Wars of the Roses in the time of King Henry VI and as you would expect it’s a combination of adventure and romance. ![]() The Black Arrow by Robert Louis Stevenson was first published in 1888 and it’s one of the books on my Classics Club list. ![]()
