The following collection of verses, written at various times and places, principally after the author's final departure from England in 1887, was sent home by him for publication some months before his death. He had tried them in several different orders and under several different titles, as "Songs and Notes of Travel," "Posthumous Poems," etc., and in the end left their naming and arrangement to the present editor, with the suggestion that they should be added as Book III. to future editions of "Underwoods." This suggestion it is proposed to carry out; but in the meantime, for the benefit of those who possess "Underwoods" in its original form, it has been thought desirable to publish them separately in the present volume. They have already been included in the Edinburgh Edition of the author's works.

Robert Louis Stevenson wrote this collection of poems in reflection of his many journeys and travels. First published in 1896, Songs of Travel is rich with imagery seen by its author during his many traversals of the countryside in Britain and wider Europe. Pastoral scenes, description of the seasons are present, together with memories of women Stephenson knew and wished to tribute. Several of the poems double as correspondences to associates of the author. Also known by its full title, Songs of Travel and Other Verses, this text was a noted inspiration for Ralph Vaughan Williams who made several of the poems suitable for baritone singers. Williams, a great lover of the outdoors and nature, took to the volume Stephenson with enthusiasm. His compositions were strongly appreciated, acting to promote and expose the poetry of Stevenson to a wider audience. Complete and without abridgement, this edition contains annotations for many of the poems which explain their subject and context, in order for the reader to better interpret them.
