This collection would be a prize addition to any reader's favorites if only for The Wrong Box, easily the funniest thing I have read in 10 years. Taken one after another the books reveal Stevenson's marvelous talents for dialogue, characterization and atmosphere, as well as smoothly synchronized plots. The Master of Ballantrae is a study in psychopathology written by a skilled observer of humanity and Kidnapped explores a personality under a variety of stresses with tremendous skill.
