Notes

Treasure Island is an adventure novel by Robert Louis Stevenson, first published in 1883, that tells the story of young Jim Hawkins, who discovers a pirate’s treasure map and sets out on a dangerous sea voyage to find it. Joining a crew aboard the Hispaniola, Jim encounters the cunning and charismatic Long John Silver, a one-legged cook who is secretly leading a mutiny to claim the treasure for himself. The novel is known for its fast-paced plot, memorable characters, and vivid depictions of piracy, introducing lasting tropes like treasure maps marked with an “X,” buried gold, and talking parrots. It remains a classic of children's literature and a defining work in the pirate adventure genre.
