Is a classic adventure novel that defined many of the tropes associated with pirates and buried treasure. The story is narrated primarily by young Jim Hawkins, who works at his family’s inn, the Admiral Benbow.

Jim’s life changes dramatically when a gruff old sailor named Billy Bones arrives at the inn and later dies, leaving behind a mysterious sea chest. Inside, Jim discovers a map to the legendary buried treasure of the infamous pirate Captain Flint. This discovery ignites an expedition, financed by local gentry Squire Trelawney and Dr. Livesey, who charter a ship called the Hispaniola.
