Treasure Island
First published over a century ago, this extraordinary tale of long-lost treasure and revenge remains one of the best known piece of classic literature.
When Billy Bones died at the Admiral Benbow Inn, the landlord’s son Jim Hawkins had no idea that the oilskin packet he left was a treasure map. But Jim soon found out when he sailed as a cabin boy on the Hispaniola with Long John Silver and the rest of the shafty crew. His adventures with the castaway Ben Gunn and the treasure-seeking pirates make a classic story of excitement and suspense.
