treasure island

by Robert Louis Stevenson

There is an old crippled man knocking at the Admiral Ben Bow Inn. His name is Captain Billy Bones. He lives in fear of a one-legged man, because Billy Bones has a map in his suitcase that the one-legged man wants. But, Billy Bones doesn't know that the one-legged man, Captain Flint died. One day a blind beggar named "Blind Pew" comes to see Billy Bones at the Inn and gives him the "Black Spot", a mark of immediate death between pirate crews. Billy Bones gives Jim Hawkins, the owner of the Inns' son, a key to the suitcase before he dies. Jim is fourteen years old and in very good shape. Jim takes the suitcase to Dr. Livesey, a smart young man in his middle thirties, and Squire Trelawney, an old rich man who lives very lavishly and pampered. They open the suitcase and find a map that belonged to Captain Flint, who is the most popular dead pirate around. The Doctor and Squire decide to hunt for the treasure and ask Jim to come along. The squire buys a ship that they had to have built and named it the Hispaniola. They hire Captain Smollert, Long John Silver the cook, and the rest of the boats crew to sail the ship.

When Dr. Livesey, Squire Trelawney, and Captain Smollert get to the island they find an old stockade. When the crew finds out that their plan for mutiny has been told, they start to attack the stockade. Captain Smollert is shot in the shoulder and injured pretty bad. The Doctor and Squire end up killing most of the pirates. Jim set off for the Hispaniola in the small boat that Ben Gunn made. Jim wanted to get the Hispaniola closer to the stockade. A pirate is able to get onto the Hispaniola and Jim has to fight him off. Jim gets the boat where he wants it and returns back to the stockade. When he gets back to the stockade, he is captured by Long John Silver and forced to give up the map. Who will find the treasure first? Will it be Long John Silver and the pirates, or will it be the Doctor, Squire, Jim and the Captain? Read Treasure Island to find out! The main idea that Robert Louis Stevenson made in Treasure Island was how "good" wins over "evil", using strategies and tactics to defeat the pirates. For example, the good characters, Jim Hawkins and Dr. Livesey, took cover in a high ground stockade w
