A mysterious seaman hides at a country inn; cut-throats raid a sleepy English village; suddenly, young Jim Hawkins becomes the owner of a map leading to a lost tropical island and a fortune in stolen gold. Three adventures--Jim, Squire Trelawney, and Dr. Livesey--set out to find the treasure.
But they trust the one they should most fear, Long John Silver. Charming, brave ruthless, murderous, Silver fills the squire's ship with pirates. And on the desolate, fever-infested island, the quest for gold becomes a deadly war of hide and seek. Desperate defenders against merciless killers battling over a cursed treasure won with blood, buried with blood, sought with blood. Incredible wealth that Jim and his friends can only claim...

Climb aboard for the swashbuckling adventure of a lifetime. Treasure Islandhas enthralled (and caused slight seasickness) for decades. The names Long John Silver and Jim Hawkins are destined to remain pieces of folklore for as long as children want to read Robert Louis Stevenson's most famous book. With it's dastardly plot and motley crew of rogues and villains, it seems unlikely that children will ever say no to this timeless classic.

From School Library Journal
Gr 7 Up-The archetypal sea-faring adventure story is given another rousing and dramatic rendition in this quickly paced abridged entry in Hodder's top-flight Classic Collection series. The critical plot and subplot threads have been beautifully retained, and all the classic lines like "shiver me timbers" have been included. Stalwart English actor Richard Griffiths handles the bulk of the narrative chores flawlessly and is particularly effective in his pacing. He is capably assisted by Gareth Armstrong who, inexplicably, is uncredited on the cassette case. The subtle use of occasional sound effects such as gulls, lapping waves, and cannon and gunshot enhances this superb version of Stevenson's masterpiece. All collections should make room for this fine work.

評分《金银岛》是英国家喻户晓的文学家罗伯特・路易斯・史蒂文森的经典代表作。罗伯特・路易斯・史蒂文森于1850年出生,于1894年因中风而逝世,热衷于阅读写作,一生中在世界各地旅居,足迹遍布欧洲、美洲和太平洋上的各个岛屿,这也是他创作这部寻宝小说的灵感来源。 这部...
評分俗语有云:人为财死鸟为食亡!对经济利益的最大化追求是人类文明向前奔走的驱动药剂之一,经济基础决定上层建筑,换言之也就影响我们的文明形态和政经制度,煌煌数卷的资本大论就是描述这种因果关系,我想很多人会是赞同的。 大家高唱我的征途是星之大海,赞颂英雄主义,对未知...
