  • "Young Jim Hawkins' quest begins when dying pirate Captain Flint leaves a treasure map at the coastal inn run by Jim's poor mother. Jim shows the map to the local doctor and squire, who arrange a voyage to find the treasure. On board their ship is smooth-talking Long John Silver, a peg-legged pirate who recruits other pirates into the crew to seize the ship and kill Jim and his friends as soon as the treasure is found. On the island, the pirates battle Jim's handful of honest men for control of the ship and an island fortress. Jim's heroics and his discovery of a castaway, Ben Gunn, eventually turn the evil tide in this tale of high adventure."
  • ""Young Jim Hawkins and his friends set sail for Treasure Island, hoping to find the buried loot of Captain Flint, fiercest of all the pirates. But, unknown to them, the crew of their own ship is made up of Flint's former crew, led by the evil one-legged pirate Long John Silver. Once on the island Jim and his friends must find the buried treasure and escape before the pirates capture them. Robert Louis Stevenson's timeless tale of greed and gold remains the most exciting adventure story ever written."--Book back cover."
