Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson

This book was first published in 1882, though is has remained timeless. This is a book for anyone that likes adventure and excitement. Jim Hawkins and his mother and father run a Inn called the "Admiral Ben Bow." This is a classic Pirate story told in retrospect by a youth Jim Hawkins and takes us into a long-gone pirate world of Long John Silver with treasure in it. The story has colorful language, but never foul. I thought the story flowed nicely. I thought it was a wonderful book and I had a lot of fun reading it and I hope you do too.
