Martin Danahay provides an authoritative text, an excellent introductory commentary, an up-to-date bibliography, and a well-chosen set of contextualizing appendicesFor an in-depth understanding of Stevenson’s masterpiece of horror, this is the text of choice." - Patrick Brantlinger, Indiana University

"Martin Danahay’s edition of Jekyll and Hyde is a treasure trove of biographical, cultural, and historical materials. It makes a number of important contexts for interpretation available through its accessible but intriguing assemblage of ancillary documents. It cannot fail to be the inspiration for deeper investigations of a masterpiece that is itself at the crossroads of Victorian anxieties about sex, class, psychology, evolution, and the rise of popular culture." - John Kucich, University of Michigan

Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-94) was a Scottish novelist, poet, essayist, and writer of works for children.
