Back To Treasure Island

By Harold Augustin Calahan

Published by A. & C Black, London, undated, c1942. Hardback ook with dust jacket, thick 8vo, 246 pages, illustrated by L F Grant.

This book is intended as a sequel to Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island;

The story begins with Jim and his mother back at the Inn, half of the treasure buried, and Jim living in dread of thieves and rogues. When the South Sea bubble carries away the doctor's and the squire's fortunes, and the balance of Jim's, Jim invests his balance in chartering the old vessel and securing officers and a crew, and off they set for the island and the rest of the treasure. But treason is aboard, and they have all sorts of adventures and misadventures, from which, needless to say, they emerge triumphant.

CONDITION

A good copy. The dust jacket has its original price intact but there has been a few inner repairs to some closed tears. The jacket is protected in a removable mylar sleeve. Boards and spine are good. Presentation slip to inner board dated for the year 1941-42. Pages good throughout. Overall a good copy.
