Ballantyne was a Scottish writer of young adult literature who produced more than a hundred books between 24 April 1825 and 8 February 1894. He was also a skilled artist; some of his watercolors were on display at the Royal Scottish Academy. The ninth of ten children and youngest son of Alexander Thomson Ballantyne (1776-1847) and his wife Anne, Ballantyne was born in Edinburgh on April 24, 1825. (1786-1855). Roberts uncle James Ballantyne (1772-1833) was Sir Walter Scotts printer, and Alexander worked as a newspaper editor and printer in the family business "Ballantyne & Co" based at Pauls Works on the Canongate. The family is documented to have resided at 20 Fettes Row in Edinburghs northern New Town in 1832-1833. The Ballantyne printing company collapsed the next year with debts of £130,000 as a result of a UK-wide banking crisis, which caused a decrease in the familys finances. Ballantyne moved to Canada at the age of 16 and worked for the Hudsons Bay Company for five years. He traveled by canoe and sleigh to the regions that are now the provinces of Manitoba, Ontario, and Quebec to trade with the local First Nations and Native Americans for furs; these experiences served as the inspiration for his book The Young Fur Traders.
