Treasure Island (Annotated)
The Complete 1883 Text with Notes, Glossary and Gazetteer
A sea-chest, a hidden map and the name of a dead pirate draw young Jim Hawkins from the quiet Admiral Benbow into one of literature’s great voyages. This annotated edition keeps the Cassell text of 1883 unchanged, with footnotes, glossary, gazetteer and ten new plates.

Inside the edition
About this book.
At the centre stands Long John Silver: genial, dangerous, intelligent and impossible to forget, while the dead Captain Flint casts his shadow across the entire voyage. Beneath the legend lies an exact and tightly constructed novel of ships, tides, distances, divided loyalties and a boy learning to judge men under pressure.
