The Faith of Robert Louis Stevenson (Classic Reprint)Excerpt from The Faith of Robert Louis Stevenson I cannot send forth a second edition of this book without a few further words with my readers, and the first word must be one of heartiest gratitude. The cordiality of its reception by the great majority of reviewers, both in Britain and America, has surprised me; while many letters from friends, known and unknown, have touched me very deeply. If the book has braced the courage of some readers and quickened their belief in life, one of its main ends has been accomplished. For several criticisms revealing errors of detail I also thank my critics, and have gladly made the necessary changes.
