Robert Louis Stevenson lived a life that was almost as adventurous as the stories he created. He was a lifelong traveler, and he often wrote about his personal exploits in his travel narratives, such as Travels with a Donkey in the Cevennes. He studied law, but never practiced. He always aspired to be a writer, and he taught himself to write by studying and copying the style and techniques of his favorite writers.
