Treasure Island by Robert Stevenson原文Chapter 2: Flint's MapA week later, the captain came down and sat in his usual chair.I went outside the inn and looked up and down the road.I saw another man on the road.He wore a long black coat and he walked very slowly.'He can't see,'I thought.The man arrived in front of the inn and turned his face to me. 'Can you tell me, please, where I am?'I told him.He listened carefully ;'You're young,' he said. 'Take my hand, my young friend, and take me inside.'He took my hand, He was very strong.'Now my young friend,' he said, 'take me to the captain. Quickly! I can break your arm.'When the captain saw the man, he did not move.The man put something into the captain's hand and then left the inn.The captain looked at the black paper in his hand.Then he read the words on it.'Ten o'clock!They're coming at ten o'clock,' he said. 'We've got six hours!'He tried to stand up, but he was too ill.I ran for my mother,but it was too late.When we came back the captain was dead on the floor.My mother and I went to the village, but the people there did not want to help us.They were too afraid.Our friend the doctor was away.Nobody could help us.'I must get my money from the captain's box,' my mother said. 'It's our money.'We opened the box.There were some old coats and shirts and a bag of money.My mother began to take the money.'Quickly!' I said. 'It's nearly ten o'clock.'It was a cold night,and very quiet.Suddenly, I heard a sound on the road.Then I heard someone stop outside the inn.We waited, but then everything was quiet again.Nothing moved.'Quickly, mother!' I said. 'Take all the captain's money.''No,' she said. 'I don't want it all.'Then we heard someone again, outside the front door.'Let's go without the money,'my mother said.I took an envelope from the captain's box. 'I'm going to take this,' I said.We left the inn very quietly through the backdoor.We heard men running along the road to the inn.We stopped behind some trees and watched the men.There were seven or eight of them, all pirates.They broke down the door of the inn and ran inside.'Bill's dead!'someone said.'Open his box!' a second man said.'Flint's map!Where's Flint's map?''We can't find it!''It's not here!''It's those people at the inn - it's that boy! The boy's got the map. Find them, boys!'The men moved quickly.They looked into every room in the inn.'Listen!' one of them said. 'Someone's coming! We must run!''No, find the boy!He's near here somewhere, I know.'Then I heard a gun.The pirates heard it too, and began to run away.We waited for a minute or two and then we went back to the inn.'What did the pirates want?' a man from the village asked me. 'Did they find the captain's money?''Yes,' I said. 'But I think they wanted this.' I showed him the envelope. 'I think there's a map inside it.''You must take it to Mr.Trelawney,'he told me.When I arrived at Mr.Trelawney's house, Dr Livesey was there.'Hello Jim, what is it?' he asked.I told him about the pirates.'Let's see that map,' the doctor said. 'But first, Mr. Trelawney, what do you know about Captain Flint?''Flint?' said Mr.Trelawney. 'He was a famous pirate and a very bad man. Everybody was afraid of Captain Flint. But he's dead now.''Money!' said Mr.Trelawney. 'He was the richest pirate in the West Indies.'Then perhaps this map shows where Captain Flint's treasure is,' said the doctor.'What?' said Mr.Trelawney.Then I must buy a ship and we can all go and look for the treasure.'The doctor opened the map very carefully.It was a map of an island.There was some writing on the map.It said: 'Treasure here'.Mr. Trelawney and the doctor were excited.'Livesey!' said Mr.Trelawney. 'Tomorrow I'm going to Bristol. I'm going to buy a ship and find sailors.Jim, you and Dr Livesey are going to come with me to look for the treasure!'

...in which we descend upon Coniston Water to talk all things Ransome with lifelong Swallows and Amazons devotees Paul Flint and Geraint Lewis. Embarking from Bank Ground – a familiar location to the young Arthur – we journey past springtime Brantwood before crossing to Coniston on Gondola, one of the inspirations for Captain Flint's houseboat. As we travel, we learn about formative Nibthwaite holidays in which Ransome fell in love with Lakeland; we talk about the Great Freeze of 1895, which an unhappy schoolboy was to return to with nostalgia in Winter Holiday; we discuss Russian adventures and the lure of Bohemia; and we discover why lifelong wanderer Ransome – who suffered ill health for much of his adult life – never quite found home. We close, besides Titty's grave, with a favourite Ransome excerpt from each of our guests. Paul and Geraint are trustees of the Arthur Ransome Trust. You can find out more about their work at arthur-ransome-trust.org.uk The exhibition 'Swallows and Amazons as Seen from Abroad' will run at Brantwood Saturday 18 June – Tuesday 9 August.

Robert Luis Stevenson's novel Treasure Island begins with Billy Bones knocking on the front door of the inn looking for Captain Flint.

“Unearthing the Treasure” features interviews with the director, cast and designers. Linfield Theatre Program presents Bryony Lavery's play adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island, directed by Janet Gupton. “Lavery's adaptation appealed to me because she writes the role of Jim Hawkins to be played by a young woman.

By: Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) A heady mix of thrills, mystery, atmosphere and memorable characters, Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson is a classic adventure story that has enthralled both young and old alike ever since it was first published in 1883. Right from the racy opening chapter where the young hero Jim Hawkins encounters a mysterious guest, Billy Bones, at the Admiral Benbow Inn run by his widowed mother, the tale carries the reader off on an edge-of-the-seat roller-coaster ride of non-stop action and drama. Set in 18th century England and told entirely from Jim Hawkins' youthful perspective, the novel portrays how he is drawn unwittingly into the dark deeds of pirates and buccaneers on the English coast. The excitement begins when he discovers a cryptic treasure map in Billy Bones' chest when the secretive Billy succumbs to a fatal heart attack. Jim takes the strange map to trusted elders in the village, Squire Trelawney and Doctor Livesey, who at once guess that the map marks the location of the lost treasure of an infamous pirate Captain Flint. They decide to immediately set sail in search of the fabled riches with Jim being invited to join them! What more could a young boy want! This is the prelude to a journey that will take young Jim and a band of intrepid seafarers half-way across the world. Traveling as part of the crew, in the guise of a ship's cook, is a sinister yet admirable figure - Long John Silver. This one-legged, ruthless and avaricious man, whose shadowy past hides many a dark and evil secret, is one of the most colorful and remarkable characters in the story. Stevenson endows him with a host of unforgettable qualities – the most famous of which, is of course, the parrot strangely named “Captain Flint” who is constantly on Silver's shoulder. His villainy gradually unfolds as the voyage progresses. The novel has retained its perennial charm for readers over the centuries and is perhaps one of the most adapted adventure stories on TV, film and stage. Recently, a video game has been created based on this eternally appealing tale. Intrigues, duels, escapades and Jim's own transformation into a man, make this the ultimate thrills-spills-'n'-chills fantasy.

By: Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) A heady mix of thrills, mystery, atmosphere and memorable characters, Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson is a classic adventure story that has enthralled both young and old alike ever since it was first published in 1883. Right from the racy opening chapter where the young hero Jim Hawkins encounters a mysterious guest, Billy Bones, at the Admiral Benbow Inn run by his widowed mother, the tale carries the reader off on an edge-of-the-seat roller-coaster ride of non-stop action and drama. Set in 18th century England and told entirely from Jim Hawkins' youthful perspective, the novel portrays how he is drawn unwittingly into the dark deeds of pirates and buccaneers on the English coast. The excitement begins when he discovers a cryptic treasure map in Billy Bones' chest when the secretive Billy succumbs to a fatal heart attack. Jim takes the strange map to trusted elders in the village, Squire Trelawney and Doctor Livesey, who at once guess that the map marks the location of the lost treasure of an infamous pirate Captain Flint. They decide to immediately set sail in search of the fabled riches with Jim being invited to join them! What more could a young boy want! This is the prelude to a journey that will take young Jim and a band of intrepid seafarers half-way across the world.

This is an audiobook of Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson, narrated by Mark F. Smith. In Treasure Island, we get an adventure and coming-of-age story that has captured many a heart in the nearly 140 years since it was first published. An old pirate, Billy Bones, goes to the Admiral Benbow Inn where he meets a young boy, Jim Hawkins, who he asks to be on the lookout for someone. This is young Hawkins introduction into the deadly world of piracy. He takes a map found in Bones’ chest to the respectable Dr. Livesey & squire John Trelawney. Mustering a crew, they set out to find the buried treasure of the legendary Captain Flint, but unbeknownst to them, some of the characters aboard their ship don’t plan on sharing generously. Most dangerous is the charismatic & charming Long John Silver, a peg-legged pirate with a parrot named – either out of respect or in mockery – Captain Flint.

He heads to Nassau with the intend to take control of the colony from the pirates. In order to better understand Nassau, he takes Eleanor Guthrie to advise him; over time, their relationship grows closer. He is the main antagonist in Season 3 and 4. He loses his title of Governor and is finally defeated by Jack Rackham, James Flint and Long John Silver. But Rackham doesn't kill him, wanting instead to humiliate him to avenge Charles Vane and Edward Teach, who died because of him. http://black-sails.wikia.com/wiki/Woodes_Rogers William Manderly, better known as Billy Bones, was the Boatswain of the pirate ship Walrus. After Gates became the captain of the Ranger he was promoted to Quartermaster. He is key to smooth operations on the ship, and was widely assumed to be the next quartermaster should anything happen to Gates.

In Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island, Long John Silver's parrot, Captain Flint would say with great rapidity, as the novel tells us, "Pieces of eight! Pieces of eight! Pieces of eight!" till you wondered that it was not out of breath, or till John threw his handkerchief over the cage. " This classic story has captivated generations of adults and children alike. It has also linked the coins (and parrots) to fictional depictions of pirates, to this day. So, whilst great pirate stories have forever linked “pieces of eight” with their owners and their seafaring bounty where does the term come from and what were they for? That is a tale of wonder. Let’s find out. For more information links and sources visit www.injustoneday.com/piecesofeight Thanks for listening!

By: Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) A heady mix of thrills, mystery, atmosphere and memorable characters, Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson is a classic adventure story that has enthralled both young and old alike ever since it was first published in 1883. Right from the racy opening chapter where the young hero Jim Hawkins encounters a mysterious guest, Billy Bones, at the Admiral Benbow Inn run by his widowed mother, the tale carries the reader off on an edge-of-the-seat roller-coaster ride of non-stop action and drama. Set in 18th century England and told entirely from Jim Hawkins' youthful perspective, the novel portrays how he is drawn unwittingly into the dark deeds of pirates and buccaneers on the English coast. The excitement begins when he discovers a cryptic treasure map in Billy Bones' chest when the secretive Billy succumbs to a fatal heart attack. Jim takes the strange map to trusted elders in the village, Squire Trelawney and Doctor Livesey, who at once guess that the map marks the location of the lost treasure of an infamous pirate Captain Flint. They decide to immediately set sail in search of the fabled riches with Jim being invited to join them! What more could a young boy want! This is the prelude to a journey that will take young Jim and a band of intrepid seafarers half-way across the world. Traveling as part of the crew, in the guise of a ship's cook, is a sinister yet admirable figure - Long John Silver. This one-legged, ruthless and avaricious man, whose shadowy past hides many a dark and evil secret, is one of the most colorful and remarkable characters in the story. Stevenson endows him with a host of unforgettable qualities – the most famous of which, is of course, the parrot strangely named “Captain Flint” who is constantly on Silver's shoulder. His villainy gradually unfolds as the voyage progresses. The novel has retained its perennial charm for readers over the centuries and is perhaps one of the most adapted adventure stories on TV, film and stage. Recently, a video game has been created based on this eternally appealing tale. Intrigues, duels, escapades and Jim's own transformation into a man, make this the ultimate thrills-spills-'n'-chills fantasy.

Right from the racy opening chapter where the young hero Jim Hawkins encounters a mysterious guest, Billy Bones, at the Admiral Benbow Inn run by his widowed mother, the tale carries the reader off on an edge-of-the-seat roller-coaster ride of non-stop action and drama. Set in 18th century England and told entirely from Jim Hawkins' youthful perspective, the novel portrays how he is drawn unwittingly into the dark deeds of pirates and buccaneers on the English coast. The excitement begins when he discovers a cryptic treasure map in Billy Bones' chest when the secretive Billy succumbs to a fatal heart attack. Jim takes the strange map to trusted elders in the village, Squire Trelawney and Doctor Livesey, who at once guess that the map marks the location of the lost treasure of an infamous pirate Captain Flint. They decide to immediately set sail in search of the fabled riches with Jim being invited to join them! What more could a young boy want! This is the prelude to a journey that will take young Jim and a band of intrepid seafarers half-way across the world. Traveling as part of the crew, in the guise of a ship's cook, is a sinister yet admirable figure - Long John Silver. This one-legged, ruthless and avaricious man, whose shadowy past hides many a dark and evil secret, is one of the most colorful and remarkable characters in the story. Stevenson endows him with a host of unforgettable qualities – the most famous of which, is of course, the parrot strangely named “Captain Flint” who is constantly on Silver's shoulder. His villainy gradually unfolds as the voyage progresses. The novel has retained its perennial charm for readers over the centuries and is perhaps one of the most adapted adventure stories on TV, film and stage. Recently, a video game has been created based on this eternally appealing tale. Intrigues, duels, escapades and Jim's own transformation into a man, make this the ultimate thrills-spills-'n'-chills fantasy.
