Title: A timeless classic at an inexpensive price
Review: This classic by Robert Louis Stevenson should have a place on everyone's shelf. When we think of tales of pirates and buccaneers, we can not help but thing of Captain Flint and Long John Silver.Why this edition? Although this is by no means a keepsake, it is an inexpensive and well-done edition. It is unabridged and has an illustration of the treasure map as well as illustrations from other scenes in the book (such as Jim Hawkins' meeting Ben Gunn). It is easy to carry around when you are out on vacation or doing some hiking. You can't do that with a keepsake.The story is written in narrative fashion, mostly from the perspective of Hawkins, but sometimes from Dr. Livesey's point of view. Either way, it is fast paced and hard to put down.I would recommend this edition to anyone not willing to invest in a hardcover keepsake. You can not go wrong.
