At the end of Treasure Island, Robert Louis Stevenson's gripping adventure story, the Hispaniola sailed away with 'great heaps of coin...bars of gold...doubloons and double guineas'. But some treasure had to be left behind -as were three surviving pirates, deliberately marooned, Their leader, Long John Silver,had changed sides in time to save his skin, and on the voyage home to Bristol slipped ashore, helping himself to some of thehoard as he vanished.

Jim Hawkins, the cabin-boy who narrated the story, returned to live in the English countrygide near his friends Dr Livesey and Squire Trelawney, and grew up to become landlord of the family inn. He swore that 'Oxen and wain-ropes would not bring me back again to that accursed island'.

But one day, ten years after his return,a beautiful stranger and her young son come looking for Jim Hawkins, and he is led back to the south seas, to even greater danger than before, to violence and a mystery...

This thrilling sequel to one. of the greatest adventure stories ever told is written in the same spirit and with due homage to the wonderful original. The author's name, Francis Bryan, is a pseudonym.Treasure Island, under the title The Sea Cook,was first published as a magagine serial throughout the winter of 1881-2. When it appeared in book form in 1883, it established Stevenson's reputation. He had written it during a raiW holiday in Scotland, partly for the amusement of his American stepson,Lloyd Osbourne, then aged twelve although Stevenson insisted the book belonged as appropriately to grown-ups as to childrenl.

He was proved right: His characters became instantly famous and passed for ever into pular cultue, especially Long John Silver vgith his wooden crutch, his greeting,Jim, lad', and his parrot, Cap'n Flint, whocackled Pieces of Eight!

Never out of print, Treasure Island sells thousands of copies worldwide every year.Among. Stevenson's contempgraries it received wide acclaim for its memorable characterisation,clear language,realistic atmosphere and rattling good narrative.
