Published in 1883, Treasure Island is Robert Louis Stevenson’s masterpiece of adventure fiction and one of the most beloved stories in the English language. Young Jim Hawkins stumbles upon a treasure map leading to the cache of the notorious pirate Captain Flint — and finds himself voyaging to a dangerous island in the company of the brilliantly duplicitous Long John Silver, one of literature’s great villains and antiheroes.
Stevenson’s crisp plotting, vividly realized setting, and morally complex characters set a standard for adventure fiction that has never been surpassed. Download this free EPUB from Better Gutenberg and join Jim on his unforgettable voyage.
