This is a first edition biography of Fanny Van de Grift Stevenson written by her sister Nellie. Fanny was the wife of Robert Louis Stevenson and lived a fascinating life. An early supporter of Stevenson's works, she was an author, travel writer, editor, and adventurer independent of her more famous husband, described by her final companion Ned Field as "the only woman in the world worth dying for."
