From the moment young Jim Hawkins first encounters the sinister Blind Pew at the Admiral Ben-bow Inn until the climactic battle for treasure on a tropic isle, the nevel creates scenes and characters that have transpire the imaginations of generations of readers. Treasure Island Audio-book narrated and written by a superb prose stylist, a master of both action and atmosphere, the story centers upon the conflict between good and evil - but in this case a particularly engaging form of evil. It is the villainy of that most ambiguous rogue Long John Silver that sets the tempo of this tale of treachery, greed, and daring. Designed to forever kindle a dream of high romance and distant horizons, Treasure Island is, in the words of G. K. Chesterton, 'the realization of an ideal, that which is promised in its provocative and beckoning map; a vision not only of white skeletons but also green palm trees and sapphire seas.' G. S. Fraser terms it 'an utterly original book' and goes on to write: 'There will always be a place for stories like Treasure Island that can keep boys and old men happy.' 538 $a Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 $a Treasure troves $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Pirates $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Adventure stories. 650 1 $a Buried treasure $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Pirates $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Adventure and adventurers $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Caribbean Area $x History $y 18th century $v Juvenile fiction. 651 1 $a Caribbean Area $x History $y 18th century $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Adventure fiction. $2 gsafd 700 1 $a McKowen, Scott, $e illustrator. 710 2 $a hoopla digital. 830 0 $a Children's classics series. 856 40 $u https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/12309402 $z Instantly available on hoopla. 856 42 $z Cover image $u https://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/aut_9781982739768_180.jpeg 941 $a 1 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20190905012036.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3DC0FD62868F11E988B41FF596128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
