Kidnapped

The adventures of David Balfour, a young orphan, as he journeys through the dangerous Scottish Highlands in an attempt to regain his rightful inheritance.

When young David Balfour's father dies, he gives his only son a letter leading the boy to his estranged uncle—little suspecting that this miserly man will steal David's inheritance and arrange for him to be kidnapped, put aboard a ship to the Carolinas, and sold into slavery. But fate intervenes: David finds himself shipwrecked—and, now, penniless. Together with a Jacobite rebel named Alan Breck (a real historical figure), young Balfour travels across the dangerous Scottish Highlands, making his way back home to reclaim his birthright.

This classic tale of high adventure, called by Henry James "Stevenson's best book," is an action-packed "boys' book" in the vein of Stevenson's Treasure Island, as well as a worthy heir to the long tradition of historical romances in the Western canon.

This edition includes:

-A concise introduction that gives the reader important background information

-A chronology of the author's life and work

-A timeline of significant events that provides the book's historical context

-An outline of key themes and plot points to guide the reader's own interpretations

-Detailed explanatory notes

-Critical analysis, including contemporary and modern perspectives on the work

-Discussion questions to promote lively classroom and book group interaction

-A list of recommended related books and films to broaden the reader's experience
