In my opinion, it didn't come close to his highly celebrated story - Coral Island. And as always with Ballantyne, there are not so subtle sprinklings of Christianity throughout, and quite a bit of that in this particular book. But it was a good read overall. It centers around two brothers and their sister and the struggles they endure, and the other people they come into contact with, while be stranded on an island. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
The Scottish juvenile fiction writer R. M. Ballantyne was born into a famous family of publishers. Leaving home at age 16 he went to work for the Hudson's Bay Company; after returning home to Scotland R. M. Ballantyne published his first book "Hudson's Bay" detailing his experiences in Canada. Later Ballantyne would write about more of his experiences with Native Americans and the Fur trappers he met in the most remote regions of Canada. With his success as a writer he withdrew from the business world to become a full time writer for the rest of his life. With over a hundred different books he has become one of the most cherished juvenile fiction writers today. Along with his other exploits throughout his life he also was tremendously successful with his artwork as his water color paintings were displayed at the Royal Scottish Academy.
