A bonafide sequel to the Robert Louis Stevenson classic, 'Treasure Island'.
'Dead Man's Chest' is a classic pirate yarn that begins with Long John Silver's escape from the merchantman Hispaniola at Peurta Plata and culminates with the American Revolution more than a decade later.
It describes in rich detail the unholy alliance between this softhearted cutthroat, his teenage nephew, David Noble, and Captain John Paul Jones. Together they work to retrieve a king's ransom of Spanish gold and jewels from Dead Man's Chest: the remaining two-thirds of the treasure described in Stevenson's novel, and the inspiration for the sailor's ballad by the same name.
