"Fifteen men on the dead man's chest-Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!"
A voyage for buried treasure spells trouble for young cabin boy Jim Hawkins when he finds a packet in Captain Flint's sea chest; he could not know that the map inside it would lead him to unimaginable wealth. Shipping as a cabin boy on the Hispaniola, he sails with Squire Trelawney, Captain Smollett, Dr Livesey, the sinister Long John Silver and a frightening crew to Treasure Island.
Treasure Island is a tale of pirates and villains; maps, treasure, a shipwreck, mutiny, murder, and mayhem, with some of the nastiest pirates to ever sail the seven seas, all leading to a thrilling climax in perhaps one of the best adventure story's ever written.
