*** Treasure Island *** by Robert Louis Stevenson Brand New, Bonded Leather, Collectible Edition This edition, bound in genuine bonded leather with decorative page edges and ribbon bookmark, is an elegant addition to any home library and makes a treasured heirloom. When he attends a dying patron of his family's boarding house, young Jim Hawkins has no idea that the man was once a pirate, or that the man's possessions include a map that will lead whoever has it to the island where the notorious buccaneer, Captain Flint, buried his treasure. Jim and his guardians hire a boat to sail to the island, unaware that crew they have hired includes many members of Flint's pirate band, among them former quartermaster Long John Silver, and that they hope to claim the treasure for their own. The ensuing action-packed adventure established the classic pirate story as it was written for more than a century afterward, and it made the literary reputation of its young author, Robert Louis Stevenson . This exquisite full-color edition features an elegant bonded-leather binding, a ribbon bookmark, distinctive gilded edging, and decorative endpapers. It's a book that will be cherished by readers of all ages. Send this book as a gift! We ship this item in gift quality condition with no price stickers or other markings.
