Treasure Island is one of the most famous adventure stories in English literature. The lasting appeal of the story is supported by the fact that there are more film versions of
Treasure Island than almost any other classic novel.
The story, set in the mid-eighteenth century, is mainly narrated by a young boy named Jim Hawkins. An old sailor comes to stay at the seaside inn owned by Jim’s parents. When the sailor dies, Jim searches his belongings and finds a map revealing the location of an island with treasure buried on it. Jim’s Friend, Mr Trelawney, buys a ship to search for the treasure.
During the voyage, Jim discovers that there are many pirates among the crew, and that they are led by Long John Silver. When the ship reaches the island, a battle begins between the pirates and Mr Trelawney’s men. Jim
befriends an old pirate who lives alone on the island and has already found the treasure. After many adventures, Jim
and his friends defeat the pirates and sail back to England with the treasure.

O nascedouro das histórias de piratas

Aqui temos o primeiro libero com um tesouro enterrado cuja posição é indicada por um "X" num mapa.

O livro tem ideias originais, mas tem tanta obra que bebeu dessa fonte que parece mais uma coletânea de clichês por isso não surpreende tanto quanto poderia.

Livro de fácil leitura principalmente no começo e no final. O meio achei um pouco maçante.
