A RARE collection of books and papers belonging to one of Scotland's favourite writers is on its way home.
Robert Louis Stevenson's letters and first editions of his works are among the collection given to the National Library of Scotland and Edinburgh Napier University.
The writer, best known for Treasure Island, The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde and Kidnapped, was born in Edinburgh in 1850. He spent much of his life travelling, and died in Samoa in the South Pacific in 1894.
