Young Jim Hawkins has no reason to suspect that Billy Bones, the pensioner who has taken up residence in his father's inn, is anything other than an aging former mariner. But when violent altercations with visitors to the inn leave Billy on death's doorstep, Jim discovers that they all are members of the crew of the notorious pirate, Captain Flint, and that Billy has a map that shows the whereabouts of Flint’s buried treasure--a map that Jim inadvertently snatches from Billy's sea chest. In the company of squire John Trelawney, Jim sails aboard the Hispaniola to the island where Flint secreted his stash, hoping to preempt its recovery by others. To his considerable dismay, he discovers that most of the ship's crew are themselves former members of Flint's buccaneer brigade, including Long John Silver, the ship's cook, who treats Jim with great fondness but who, as the pirate ringleader, has the blackest of blackguard hearts. --
