Description: We Take Pride in our Packaging TREASURE ISLAND - A MUCH-LOVED CLASSIC FOR 150 YEARS REMEMBER THIS BOOK? MANY OF US HAD IT AS YOUNGSTERS - and wish we still did. Where did it go? This copy is a 1981 reprint of the classic Scribner's edition of Treasure Island which offered Robert Louis Stevenson's grand pirate adventure illustrated by N. C. Wyeth's evocative art work. Just seeing those pictures (see some above) can bring back the excitement of this great story. The novel has never lost its popularity since it came out in serial form in the 1880s. It is as much a staple for today's youngsters as it was for their parents and grandparents - and probably their great grandparents too, a rollicking tale of rum swigging villains and the heroes who stand up to them. THIS COPY IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION with clean and crisp pages, a firm and square hardcover binding and an intact dust-jacket. It was published over four decades ago but was taken good care of down the years and is unblemished. Collectors have long been attracted to the Atheneum juvenile fictions works because of their classic Wyeth illustrations.
