Description

<span style="color: rgb(24, 24, 24); font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px;">For sheer storytelling delight and pure adventure,&nbsp;</span><i style="color: rgb(24, 24, 24); font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px;">Treasure Island</i><span style="color: rgb(24, 24, 24); font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px;">&nbsp;has never been surpassed.

Fraser terms it 'an utterly original book' and goes on to write: 'There will always be a place for stories like&nbsp;</span><i style="color: rgb(24, 24, 24); font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px;">Treasure Island</i><span style="color: rgb(24, 24, 24); font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px;">&nbsp;that can keep boys and old men happy.</span>
