Set in 18th-century Scotland, young David Balfour is betrayed by his greedy uncle Ebenezer and sold into slavery aboard a ship bound across the sea. Shipwrecked and thrown together with the daring Jacobite rebel Alan Breck Stewart, David must survive a perilous flight across the Scottish Highlands to reclaim his stolen inheritance. Rugged, atmospheric artwork captures the danger and beauty of Robert Louis Stevenson's classic adventure.
