What does the word pirate bring to mind? Peg-leg? Parrot on the shoulder? Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum? Well it all started here. The adventure classic that spawned a genre, Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island is a brilliant story of treachery and greed that will entertain readers both old and young. - Sean (QBD)
