Treasure Island (Evergreen Classics)
One of the most enduringly popular adventure tales,Treasure Islandbegan in 1881 as a serialized adventure entitled "The Sea-Cook"in the periodicalYoung Folks.Completed during a stay at Davos, Switzerland, where Stevenson had gone for his health, it was published in 1883 in the form we know today.
Set in the eighteenth century,Treasure Islandspins a heady tale of piracy, a mysterious treasure map, and a host of sinister characters charged with diabolical intentions. Seen through the eyes of Jim Hawkins, the cabin boy of theHispaniola,the action-packed adventure tells of a perilous sea journey across the Spanish Main, a mutiny led by the infamous Long John Silver, and a lethal scramble for buried treasure on an exotic isle.
