Treasure Island

Treasure Island has never been surpassed for sheer storytelling joy and pure adventure. Written by a superb prose stylist, a master of both action and atmosphere, the story centers upon the conflict between good and evil. 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."
