Synopsis

Jim Hawkins finds a map in a dead sailor’s chest, and the voyage that follows is staffed, almost entirely, by men who intend to steal the treasure from one another. Stevenson practically invented the modern pirate, then made the interesting one a cook who likes the boy he may still betray.

Synopses are original catalog copy written for Every Book Ever, not publisher blurbs.
