Treasure Island

Informationen zum Autor Robert Louis Stevenson was born in Edinburgh in 1850. The son of a prosperous civil engineer, he was expected to follow the family profession but was finally allowed to study law at Edinburgh University. Stevenson reacted forcibly against the Presbyterianism of both his city's professional classes and his devout parents, but the influence of Calvinism on his childhood informed the fascination with evil that is so powerfully explored in Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde . Stevenson suffered from a severe respiratory disease from his twenties onwards, leading him to settle in the gentle climate of Samoa with his American wife, Fanny Osbourne. Klappentext An abridged retelling, suitable for young readers. Zusammenfassung Abridged and retold to make it suitable for sharing with young children from 5+, this title retains all the key events and characters of the "Treasure Island" story, including Jim Hawkins, Long John Silver and Ben Gunn, deadly pirate battles, ship-bound adventures and the hunt for treasure.
