Description from Amazon:

"Fifteen men on the dead man's chest
Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!"

Treasure Island is a tale of pirates and villains, maps, treasure and shipwreck. When young Jim Hawkins finds a packet in Captain Flint's sea chest, he could not know that the map inside it would lead him to unimaginable treasure. Shipping as cabin boy on the Hispaniola, he sails with Squire Trelawney, Captain Smollett, Dr Livesey, the sinister Long John Silver and a frightening crew to Treasure Island. There, mutiny, murder and mayhem lead to a thrilling climax.

A beautifully illustrated version of Robert Louis Stevenson's timeless classic adventure of pirates and buried treasure.

A non-illustrated version was previously uploaded by pdurrant.

Enjoy!

My pleasure. I was delighted to see this appear on PG; it's a "classic" adventure story that I never tire of reading, and the illustrations in this version are really nice.

That's it Harry. That's the reason why we are never going to read all the books we download - We read our favourites again and again. This is one of my favourites too. Thank you.

Many, many thanks, Harry. This is the first novel from childhood that sticks in my mind (my first copy was a present from my granny when I was about five). Gosh knows how many times I've read *Treasure Island* since in various forms of print presentation. But this will be it's first time for me on a reader. Very best wishes. Neil
