    Ep. 1147, David Balfour, Part 1 of 9, by Robert Louis Stevenson

    12/06/2026 | 57min
    Can David start to piece together a life while still wanted as an accomplice for the Appin Murder? Robert Louis Stevenson, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.

    Stop counting credits, or waiting for Libby, and get your Audiobook Library Card for only $9.99 a month. It's the best deal on the internet. You're going to love it.

    If you know someone who's shy about reading the classics, Robert Louis Stevenson is a great introduction. Treasure Island, Kidnapped, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and his wonderful short stories like Markheim, The Body Snatcher, and The Bottle Imp to name a few.  Today we begin an episodic journey through the novel Catriona, published as David Balfour in the US. Though the name looks to be spelled Catriona, apparently it's correctly pronounced as Katrina. So that's what we'll do.
     
    This second volume of David Balfour's story is less a straightforward adventure story, and is more of a novel of manners with some adventure sprinkled in. To me it feels like a natural progression as the youth gets older, has more responsibility, and learns to make his way in the wider world of Scottish traditions.

    I hope you're enjoying this refresher in Kidnapped. I've had so much fun revisiting this story. My favorite film adaptation is the Disney version with Peter Finch as Alan Breck Stuart, and features a young Peter O'Toole. That mixture of that sort of classic film acting and production combined with a classic story is uniquely satisfying to me.
     
    I hope you enjoy another healthy helping of David's adventures.

    Father Brown is often considered a sleuth on a par with Sherlock Holmes. In dipping into his wealth of knowledge garnered from countless confessions from thieves and other criminals, Father Brown has heard it all, and has a keen intellect and a sharp eye, despite his simple appearance.
