Kidnapped, Paperback Book

Kidnapped Paperback

Paperback

Description

Orphaned as a young teenager, Lowlander David Balfour's only relative is his guardian and uncle, Ebenezer.

Ill-thought of and disliked by many, it's not long before Ebenezer betrays his nephew and David finds himself trapped aboard a ship.He soon strikes up a friendship with fugitive stranger and Scottish Highlander Alan Breck and becomes embroiled in the fierce Jacobite struggle against English rule.

A tale of high-seas adventure, loyalty and fighting, the complex relationship between Alan and David stops Stevenson's novel from becoming 'just' a boys adventure novel.
