Treasure Island Wikipedia page about this book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treasure_Island "Treasure Island" by Robert Louis Stevenson is a classic adventure novel written during the late 19th century. The story unfolds through the eyes of Jim Hawkins, a young boy who embarks on a perilous quest for buried treasure after discovering a pirate's map. The narrative kicks off at the Admiral Benbow inn, where Jim encounters a mysterious sea captain, setting the stage for a thrilling tale filled with pirates, danger, and adventure. At the start of "Treasure Island," Jim Hawkins narrates his experience at the Admiral Benbow inn, where he meets the enigmatic Captain Bill Bones, a rough and intimidating figure with a mysterious past. As whispers of danger and pirate lore surround the captain's presence, Jim is enlisted to keep an eye out for a "seafaring man with one leg," heightening the sense of intrigue. Tensions escalate when other pirates, like the sinister Black Dog, appear, leading to fights and ultimately the captain's death, which sets into motion the quest for the treasure hinted at in his chest. Jim's discovery of a treasure map propels him into a world of adventure, accompanied by new, colorful characters, as he sets out for the mysterious island, all the while being pursued by nefarious forces.
