"For sheer storytelling delight and pure adventure, Treasure Island has never been surpassed. From the moment young Jim Hawkins first encounters the sinister Blind Pew at the Admiral Benbow Inn until the climactic battle for treasure on a tropic isle, the novel creates scenes and characters that have fired the imaginations of generations of readers. Written by a superb prose stylist, a master of both action and atmosphere, the story centers upon the conflict between good and evil - but in this case a particularly engaging form of evil. It is the villainy of that most ambiguous rogue Long John Silver that sets the tempo of this tale of treachery, greed, and daring. Designed to forever kindle a dream of high romance and distant horizons, Treasure Island is, in the words of G. K. Chesterton, 'the realization of an ideal, that which is promised in its provocative and beckoning map; a vision not only of white skeletons but also green palm trees and sapphire seas.' G. S. Fraser terms it 'an utterly original book' and goes on to write: 'There will always be a place for stories like Treasure Island that can keep boys and old men happy.'

About Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson Treasure Island is an adventure novel by Scottish author Robert Louis Stevenson, narrating a tale of "buccaneers and buried gold". It was originally serialized in the children's magazine Young Folks between 1881 and 1882 under the title Treasure Island, or the mutiny of the Hispaniola, with Stevenson adopting the pseudonym Captain George North. It was first published as a book on 14 November 1883 by Cassell & Co. Treasure Island is traditionally considered a coming-of-age story, and is noted for its atmosphere, characters, and action. It is also noted as a wry commentary on the ambiguity of morality-as seen in Long John Silver-unusual for children's literature. It is one of the most frequently dramatized of all novels. Its influence is enormous on popular perceptions of pirates, including such elements as treasure maps marked with an "X", schooners, the Black Spot, tropical islands, and one-legged seamen bearing parrots on their shoulders.

Treasure Island is an adventure novel by Scottish author Robert Louis Stevenson, narrating a tale of "buccaneers and buried gold." Stevenson conceived of the idea of Treasure Island (originally titled, "The Sea Cook: A Story for Boys") from a map of an imaginary, romantic island idly drawn by Stevenson and his stepson on a rainy day in Braemar, Scotland. Plot: An old sailor, calling himself "the captain" comes to lodge at the Admiral Benbow Inn on the west English coast during the mid-1700s, paying the innkeeper's son, Jim Hawkins, a few pennies to keep a lookout for a one-legged "seafaring man." A seaman with intact legs shows up, frightening Billy - who drinks far too much rum - into a stroke, and Billy tells Jim that his former shipmates covet the contents of his sea chest. After a visit from yet another man, Billy has another stroke and dies; Jim and his mother (his father has also died just a few days before) unlock the sea chest, finding some money, a journal, and a map. The local physician, Dr. Livesey, deduces that the map is of an island where a deceased pirate - Captain Flint - buried a vast treasure. The district squire, Trelawney, proposes buying a ship and going after the treasure, taking Livesey as ship's doctor and Jim as cabin boy.... Robert Louis Stevenson (1850 - 1894) was a Scottish novelist, poet, essayist, and travel writer. His most famous works are Treasure Island, Kidnapped, and Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. A literary celebrity during his lifetime, Stevenson now ranks among the 26 most translated authors in the world.

IT was in 1880 and 1881 that Stevenson wrote Treasure Island, which was begun at Braemar, Scotland, where his father aided him with suggestions from his own seafaring experiences. It was finished in the course of his second visit to Davos in the winter of 1881-82. In 1878 he had published his first book, The Island Voyage, which was followed by Travels with a Donkey. He had also written the tales known as "The New Arabian Nights," the essays collected under the title of Virginibus Puerisque, and other stories and essays, but Treasure Island, which appeared when the author was thirty-one, was his first long romance, and it brought to him his first taste of popular success, when the story was published in book form. It was in October, 1881, that this story began to appear as a serial in an English magazine called Young Folks. The title then was "The Sea Cook, or Treasure Island," but when published in book form in May, 1883, the name was simply Treasure Island, a name which has taken its place among the titles of far older classics. I remember well that as a boy in England I was obliged to satisfy my craving for sea-stories with books like Captain Cook's Voyages and The Mutiny of the "Bounty " The latter dreadful tale must have been read by Stevenson and perhaps afforded some suggestions. It has seemed to me that before Treasure Island there was no really great sea-tale for younger readers. The immortal Swiss Family Robinson and Robinson Crusoe belonged to a different category, and Dana's Two Years before the Mast was little known to English youth. It seems to me fair to say that Treasure Island is the only great modern classic written especially for younger readers. I find that girls enjoy Treasure Island just as well as boys. The book stands alone in its wonderfully vivid and dramatic story-telling, which is characterized throughout by an entirely sane and wholesome tone and purpose. When I imagine myself again a boyish reader comparing this story with the old favorites like Robinson Crusoe, Gulliver s Travels, The Pilgrim's Progress, The Swiss Family Robinson, and Tom Brown at Rugby - the first three not written originally for children - I find myself impelled to rank Treasure Island as an equal and in some points as a superior. This may seem heresy, but it is the result of a peculiarly close and sympathetic study of these and other famous books for boys and girls. Although this was Stevenson's first long romantic story, he showed the born story-teller's instinct for a beginning which seizes upon the reader at once. We are absorbed in the first few lines and the interest deepens as we go on. How it moves and holds us - the advent of that precious trio, Billy Bones, Old Pew, and Black Dog, and their performances at the "Admiral Benbow." It is so apt an introduction to the strange tale of after happenings. And from a boy's viewpoint the end is perfect. While children, as a rule, do not understand the value of money, yet they keenly appreciate the realization of a climax where the boy hero can fairly bury himself in golden coins. It is natural that the last chapter should be read with a tinge of envy and a yearning to lay hands upon Jim Hawkins's bags of gold. And the romantic glamour of the situation appeals to older readers also who will do well to turn oftener from the average novel of the day to this most delightful example of ideal realism. It is hard to understand why Stevenson preferred to have the story published first without illustrations. With his keen artistic sense he must have felt that fitting illustration would be a gain. The text is full of effective subjects and the period and costumes romantic in the extreme. We know that the author was greatly disappointed at the mild approval given to the story in its serial publication.
