After being kidnapped by his villainous uncle, sixteen-year-old David Balfour escapes and becomes involved in the struggle of the Scottish highlanders against English rule.
…even I … if I had sat down to think, instead of raging at my fate, must have soon guessed the secret, and got free…I have seen wicked men and fools, a great many of both; and I believe they both get paid in the end; but the fools first.
