Robert Louis Stevenson

Stevenson at Play, from Scribner's Magazine December 1898

I am afraid I can't remember whose blog it was I spotted this link on yesterdayto Bob Beattie's posting of this famous article about RLS and his wargaming activities.

Written by Lloyd Osbourne it incorporated a large extract from RLS's wargames campaign diary, with"mimic war correpondent" reports.

For ease of reading I am reproducing it below.
