First published in Spain in 1973 by Ediciones AFHA within the series Grandes Obras Ilustradas, this is a faithful adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s famous adventure novel, recounting the journey of young Jim Hawkins aboard the Hispaniola in search of Captain Flint’s treasure, alongside Long John Silver. 

 R.L. Stevenson is one of the most famous authors of all time. Treasure Island set new standards and continues to captivate millions of readers of all ages to this day: the more than 50 film adaptations to date further underline the novel’s timeless appeal.
