Stevenson started with a map and the assistance of a boy's imagination. He created a fantastical place where pirates abound and treasure is really to be found. The map, as it did for Stevenson, brings it all to life for the reader. From spyglass hill to skeleton island, the places awaken the heart of adventure that sits, waiting, in the heart of every young (or old) boy (or girl). Coming from a different time, the filters are off that we normally find on our stories today. The pirates are really terrible and the heroes must be truly courageous.
