Durham, 1789. iv,80p.; 8 Contributor Bio:  Stevenson, John John is not an author, or a novelist, or even a writer: John is a storyteller. Since the dawn of humankind people have sat together and told tales; tales of what they knew and what they feared, tales of mystery and suspense, of spirits and of what evil lurked in the shadows beyond the campfire. These were tales that became fantasy and myth, a tradition that john carries on to this day. But John wasn't always a storyteller, for most of his life he was a traveller of the world: a husband and father, and bringer in of the weekly wage. As John reached middle age and his children began to have their own families he at last had time and opportunity to create the characters that inhabit the strange worlds inside his mind.
