Synopsis

All the characters that have captivated the imagination of readers for generations are vividly presented here - the rascally one-legged sea-dog Long John Silver, Billy Bones, Blind Pew, Ben Gunn and of course, young Jim Hawkins the 'rare bright spark' who sets the Treasure Island adventure in motion.
