Treasure Island is an adventure novel, a thrilling tale of "buccaneers and buried gold.” When young Jim Hawkins finds a map to pirates’ gold, he starts on an adventure that takes him from his English village to a desert island with the murderous Black Dog, half-mad Ben Gunn, and the one-legged ship's cook Long John Silver. Many perils, from wild animals to murderous villains to stormy seas will beset him on the way. Traditionally considered a coming of age story, it is an adventure tale of superb atmosphere, character and action, and also a wry commentary on the ambiguity of morality—as seen in Long John Silver—unusual for children's literature then and now. Treasure Island is one of the best-loved adventure stories of all time. It is a pirate classic that continues to delight readers of all ages so take action and download a copy of this audiobook today!
