Treasure Island AND The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde - Two Classic Tales!
Buchbeschreibung
Two of the greatest novels of the 19th Century are collected together in this double-feature by master storyteller Robert Louis Stevenson!
First, the swashbuckling epic tale of high-seas adventure "Treasure Island." When young Jim Hawkins discovers a map to the legendary pirate Captain Flint's buried treasure, he embarks on an ocean voyage to retrieve it with the help of Squire Trelawney, Doctor Livesey and the mischievous sea-cook Long John Silver. When the shipmates on board their vessel are revealed to be pirates themselves, it is up to Jim to rescue the day and take down the conspirators...headed up by Silver himself!
Then, the legendary gothic tale of mayhem and murder, "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde." Mild-mannered lawyer G.J. Utterson learns of a misshapen stranger - a Mr. Hyde - who seems to have his dear friend Dr. Henry Jekyll in his thrall. Attempting to discover the secret of this strange association, Utterson is drawn into a mystery that will lead to deception, an exploration of the duality of man and, ultimately, murder.
Enjoy these two unabridged novels of adventure and horror by legendary storyteller Robert Louis Stevenson.
