Treasure Island
By Robert Louis Stevenson
Reviewed by Robert May
In the 50 years since I first read this adventure quest story, only I have become old and dated. Treasure Island remains an excellent read for adult, child, girl, woman, boy, and man. Stevenson's story of the effects of treasure on both the poor and the needy, the adventurer, and the rich and not needy presents a psychological study of the human mind that has stayed as relevant now as when Stevenson wrote this tale of high adventure. Its a good cozy read with tea, time, and a comforter come the wind and the rains.
