Sobre IBD

Robert Michael Ballantyne (1825-1894) was a Scottish author who published more than 100 books. He was also an accomplished artist and exhibited some of his water-colours at the Royal Scottish Academy. His father was a printer, but when that business collapsed, Robert went to Canada at age 16, where he became a fur trader. When he returned to England, his adventures inspired him to begin writing, and he became one of the most successful adventure writers of his age. His novel The Coral Island helped inspire Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island. 3

  • 布法罗赛跑者
    R.M. Ballantyne
    在本世纪初的一个冬天，一场暴风雪席卷了美国大草原。它新鲜，自由而直截了当，它来自杰克·弗罗斯特 的领域，以及寒冷-极度寒冷-就像北极海中的冰山一样，但最近却告别了。细小的尘埃细细而像针的尖锐的雪被风吹散地卷起，在这里-蜿蜒的盘旋，涡旋的漩涡，到处都是滚动的云；但是当它们被破坏的狂怒疯狂地散开并扫除时，它们几乎没有时间采取不确定的形式，而大地和天空混杂着一团白灰色。远北地区的所有魔鬼似乎都在那场暴风雪上溜走了，咆哮和尖叫声如此之大，而残酷的残雪漂流则强烈地表明了痛苦的疯狂。两根白色的幽灵般的柱子在直线上缓慢而稳步地穿过所有这些崎-的魁梧。其中一个支柱是简短而广泛；另一个又高又庄重。两者都非常扎实-与周围的混乱情况相比，这是可以接受的。突然，两根支柱停了下来，尽管大风没有停止。在本世纪初的一个冬天，一场暴风雪席卷了美国大草原。它新鲜，自由而直截了当，它来...
