One of the most enduringly popular adventure tales,\u00a0Treasure Island\u00a0<\/i>began in 1881 as a serialized adventure entitled “The Sea-Cook”\u00a0<\/i>in the periodical\u00a0Young Folks.<\/i>\u00a0Completed during a stay at Davos, Switzerland, where Stevenson had gone for his health, it was published in 1883 in the form we know today.<\/p>\n
Set in the eighteenth century,\u00a0Treasure Island<\/i>\u00a0spins 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 the\u00a0Hispaniola,\u00a0<\/i>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.<\/p>\n
Rich in atmosphere and character,\u00a0Treasure Island\u00a0<\/i>continues to mesmerize readers with its perceptive views of the changing nature of human motives.<\/p>\n
