Relive one of the greatest adventure stories of all time in this stunning, unabridged edition featuring bold, dynamic woodcuts by John Lawrence. Fifteen men on a dead man s chest yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum! A treasure map where X marks the spot, a schooner set to sail, a one-legged seaman with a parrot on his shoulder, a boy whose bravery will be tested by murder, mutiny, and betrayal Robert Louis Stevenson s well-loved tale is the ultimate swashbuckling adventure.

Sweeping a path from the sleepy English coast, to the raging high seas, to a tropical island concealing a buried treasure, this story of friendship and greed, loyalty and courage stars an unforgettable cast of characters: young Jim Hawkins, the terrifying Blind Pew, the wild man Ben Gunn, and one of literature s most dastardly villains, the charming, crafty, and utterly unscrupulous Long John Silver.

Superbly illustrated by the celebrated John Lawrence, this is the definitive edition of an enduring classic.
