Beschreibung des Verlags
An Apple Books Classic edition.
When Billy Bones first walks into Jim Hawkins’ family-run inn, the prevailing sentiments are fear…and curiosity about what’s in his oversized chest. After a band of rogue pirates comes looking for him, Billy dies, leaving Jim and his mother in possession of his belongings, which contain a map leading to the treasure of the dreaded Captain Flint.
Robert Louis Stevenson’s swashbuckling adventure story plays out on the high seas-and it’s packed to the gills with heart-pounding suspense, double crosses, mutiny, mayhem, and even murder. First published as a magazine serial in the 1880s, Treasure Island set the standard for action-adventure thrillers. Hop in and prepare for a wild ride, complete with peg-legged pirates and their trusted parrots, casks of rum, tropical islands, and X marks the spot!

Daumen runter
Der Inhalt ist der Sprachpolizei zum Opfer gefallen. Piraten morden und plündern weiter, hauptsache sie verwenden eine sensible Sprache. Das ist absurd und respektlos dem Autor und dem eigentlich zeitlosen Werk gegenüber. Dem mündigen Bürger ist sehr wohl zuzumuten. das selber einzuordnen.
