Treasure Island

The famous novel by Robert Louis Stevenson is accompanied by a detailed historical and everyday commentary dedicated to maritime affairs in England in the 18th century and the "Golden Age" of piracy. Drawings, engravings, maps, pages from books of that time, and interactive elements help recreate the lively atmosphere of the era. In England, near Bristol, in the tavern "Admiral Benbow", in the room of the old captain, in the sailor's chest, in a waterproof bag is securely hidden what starts the adventures known to every boy. We will embark on a journey to 18th century England with this book, to immediately set sail and during a long voyage to Treasure Island, grasp all the maritime wisdom.

Here, behind the text of the familiar novel, the era comes to life, and in Captain Flint's tales, the fierce history of piracy stands before us. Here you can examine every corner of the schooner from the sails to the keelson, peek into Doctor Livesey's small chest, assemble a ship's crew together with Squire Trelawney, learn to keep a ship's log, plot a course, count pistoles and doubloons, shoot from a musket and cannon, and learn all about the Jolly Roger, reefs and bakshtags, the Dock of Executions, the islands of Dry Tortugas, and the pirate nests in the Spanish Sea.
