Robert Louis Stevenson

Robert Louis Stevenson was an author whose books were read by Richard Pollard. (AUDIO: The Fall of the House of Pollard)

In 1828, Doctor Robert Knox alluded to Stevenson's novel The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde during a conversation with Evelyn Smythe. Given that Stevenson would not be born until the 1850s, the Sixth Doctor realised that he mentioned the novel as a test for Evelyn whom he correctly believed may be another time traveller. (AUDIO: Medicinal Purposes)

One of Stevenson's books was Kidnapped. The Second Doctor gave Eleanor Woods a copy. (PROSE: Visiting Hours)

Another of Stevenson's books was Treasure Island. The First Doctor exchanged Treasure Island for a copy of The Time Machine while visiting Professor Chronotis in Cambridge in 1958. (PROSE: Cambridge Previsited)
