About this book
Robert Louis Stevenson’s adventure follows Jim Hawkins from his family’s inn onto a voyage for buried treasure, where a map brings him among men whose loyalties are dangerous. On the island, Jim sees John Silver kill Tom, while the bright, steaming marsh carries on around them. Elsewhere, the blind pirate Pew is left behind as riders rush down the road, a sharp sign of how little his comrades trust him. Stevenson keeps the danger close to Jim’s immediate needs, from finding water to judging the sails of a ship.
