...In all my writings I have always tried — how far successfully I know not — to advance the cause of Truth and Right and to induce my readers to put their trust in the love of God our Saviour, for this life as well as the life to come. —R.M. Ballantyne, from Personal Reminiscences in Book-Making
R.M. Ballantyne(1825-1894)
Well, this is our way of remembering the rip-roaringest, globe-trekkingest, Christian boys adventure writer of the 19th century.
Born April 24, 1825, he was perhaps the most influential writer of boys’ literature from his generation. He was also a devout Christian of the Scottish Covenanter kind, and a first class adventurer whose sturdy prose earned him the moniker “Ballantyne the Brave” from none other than Robert Louis Stevenson.
