Other editions of book Treasure Island

This 19th century Robert Louis Stevenson swashbuckling classic is for young and old. A story that follows the adventures of young Jim Hawkins from England to the South Seas. Jim finds a treasure map while going through the things of a former pirate, Billy Bones, who dies in his mother's inn and is soon off on a treacherous quest for gold. Echoing a favorite theme, Stevenson spins a startling tale of the good and evil in men as seen in the complex characters surrounding Jim on his journey. One of the most fascinating hero-villains of all time is Long John Silver, a merry rogue we can't help liking, we who have dreamed of adventure and longed for finding buried treasure.
