About the Book

When young Jim Hawkins discovers a treasure map in a dead pirate's sea chest at his family's inn, he sets sail aboard the Hispaniola as cabin boy, bound for an island where Captain Flint's legendary fortune lies buried. But the ship's charismatic cook, Long John Silver, leads a secret crew of pirates planning mutiny. As treachery erupts on the high seas and honest sailors clash with ruthless buccaneers, Jim finds himself caught in a deadly race for gold doubloons and pieces of eight. With danger at every turn—from the black spot to marooned pirates—Jim discovers that courage, loyalty, and knowing whom to trust might be worth more than all of Flint's treasure.

A treasured edition for adventure lovers, families seeking thrilling stories, and anyone wanting to experience the timeless pirate tale that defined the genre.
