Action & adventure are the order of the day when, in the 1700's, a treasure map falls into the hands of young Jim Hawkins. With the help of his friend Dr. Livesey & Squire Trelawney, the trio set sail from England with Capt. Smollett and the crew of the Hispaniola to a deserted island in search of buried treasure. But they are not the only ones interested in the map, and the ship's cook, Long John Silver & his compatriots, have other plans for our hero and his friends.
