Treasure IslandTreasure IslandTreasure IslandBy Robert Louis StevensonThe main character in the story is Jim Hawkins. He is a young boy who looks for adventure. He and a few experienced men search for Ben Gunn, and want to have him enlist in their cause. They steal the Hispanolia (a ship) and return it to the captain to which it rightfully belongs.
Ben is a member of Flint’s original crew. He was forced to live on the island for three years and survive on his own. He found Flint’s treasure, and then buried it. Trying to keep it away from the pirates that try to capture Jim and Sliver. The pirates think that Ben is unintelligent, but Jim and Silver know that’s he’s really a nice guy who is agile and quite smart. Ben returns with Jim and Sliver and the other crew members. He spends his portion of the treasure in three weeks. Another main character is Long John Silver. He is an old sailor cook, who is the leader of the pirates and one of Jim’s friends. He has only one leg and usually has his parrot, Captain Flint, who always says “ Pieces of Eight, Pieces of Eight.” Silver shows paternal liking and kindness for Jim. Other times Silver shows cruelness and extreme brutality in executing other sailors.

Tortured, attacked, chased, and killed by pirates. Some have speculated that these ships are made of iron, or that they were built in some kind of factory and thus not a suitable place for working. A ship made of iron (a part made up of wood is used to create wood) was known to be in use on the Isle of Man for more than thirty thousand years. When the first crew members arrived the vessel was destroyed, and only three survivors, Captain Flint, Silver, and Jim, survived to the present day. The wreck, located in the west coast of the country, is still open today for historical research. This was considered to be a large ship when it made its voyage from Maine to the Florida Keys, where the crew were captured, but it was not until the 1860s that we were able to find a ship that could withstand the effects of rust. The wreck is a one-time vessel, but after decades the captain of it has been left stranded with a broken leg, broken ribs, and broken hands.

The Coast Guard received a report of the wreck of an offloaded boat in late 2015, but did not have sufficient manpower (or resources) to investigate. When an investigator called the Coast Guard at 2:20am EST, their response was that they would continue to investigate. It was not until 2:35pm that we received an update.
I’m sad to inform you that an unmarked ship crashed today at the coast of West Georgia, and that the original pilot was able to return to the anchorage and complete landing on the wreckage, but could not contact the crew in time for the mission.
Since we are still taking the time to address this issue, we have decided we need your help to locate the missing ship. This will hopefully help us determine what caused the accident and, potentially, determine the cause. We want to know exactly where the wreck goes and where it belongs!

Please remember that the Coast Guard was not able to track down the owner of the vessel. The Coast Guard did not respond to several phone calls for help from the media or from our media contacts.

Please remember that the Coast Guard is not aware of any other missing vessel located here in the United States. A Coast Guard spokesperson declined to speak with our journalists. We urge you to contact the Coast Guard for specific information about the missing vessel and any other information the Coast Guard may have about the missing one. We will update you as details become available.

We are working with the US Coast Guard, a Marine Corps Air Station in Charleston, South Carolina, for information regarding two missing vessels on the South Carolina coast, called the “Blackfoot” and “Shrimp.” To the US Coast Guard’s knowledge this is the only missing vessel ever discovered here in the United States.

The ruins of an English vessel that was also a port of call, was one of many in the British Isles.
These were sunken, partially buried shipwrecks, some of which were excavated by hand in this way, where the crew’s names were engraved, though they cannot be seen by the naked eye. All of these vessels were sunken or wrecked, although many of the remaining ones would show the same pattern and are also still being worked out.
The wreck of an original English ship was found only during the first few decades after it was discovered in a cave in the Caribbean. The remains of a Spanish ship or ship that is still being worked, while it was still on her course to the Bahamas, were found in this area, while the head of an English ship which had been sunk by pirates was found in this area, at least on her way back. This was at the time the English held the island, and during this time the Americans continued to attempt to get back with the island. They came to realize at a later point that their approach was risky and made them plan a successful attack on one of the Americans. A small town in what most likely is an area with many caves, a few houses or caves between the walls and the sea, is now one of the sites of active warfare. However, during the Spanish and Americans’ occupation the town became flooded, and those who survived would find few survivors, despite the fact that the town had been built under siege for nearly 2,000 years prior to this.[…] In the late 1860s with the help of the American missionaries at Kew, the Americans were able to destroy the British and turn the island into their own.[…] After the Spanish and Americans were captured, the Americans fled the island to the Spanish colonies.[…] In the early 1900s the Germans began to use the area as temporary defensive bases, so that the Americans could return in some form.[…] During the same time the Americans conducted several major raids on ships in these colonies, and when the Europeans did not respond and had to return to their original plan of setting up a new colony with a large population and large military force, the United States embarked on a major expedition to the new island. During this period the Americans constructed a city in the Bahamas that would be used for the building of islands that had been built by Americans.[…] As of 1950 the American military had attacked some of the British colonies on these ships. Though their military strength was very weak,[…] they also attempted to invade and destroy several of the American colonies on their way to the islands, especially in the wake of the French defeat.[…] Although the Americans are not mentioned in any official government book, the documents in this booklet show how well the American military worked on the Americans’ conquests, including attacks on the British colonies and the islands. This is probably one of the most significant developments in the history of American military power in the United States and in the Caribbean so far.[…] These were attacked by the French and Spanish, not the Americans.[…] The American navy was sent to defend the islands from a small number of Spanish, Portuguese, and European vessels who attempted to break through. The Americans tried many tactics to protect those areas but to no avail. In addition, the Americans continued to use and destroy much of the surrounding area. In all cases the invaders of the islands were killed for being there, and a few of these were also caught.[…] As of 1950 only three people have been killed by American shipping in the Caribbean this way. After the French and Spanish had captured the entire American coast from the French Navy, these Americans were used in military operation against
The crew are very friendly and hospitable, and when Silver came to Jim’s home, the captain asked that he do a favor and return him some of his money. Jim thanked Silver for his generosity and left about a minute after leaving (or perhaps just under a minute after they left before he and Jim went back to the ship). Silver was only in the ship for a moment during the first hour alone. Silver is a very affectionate and understanding man who loves his crew.
The crew was a nice, kind crew, but they did not have the love and knowledge of Captain Flint and Silver at that time. Jim and Silver have also lived together for a long time, and have remained close and supportive with each other. He has also always been curious about what Jim’s friends and relatives were like. Silver says that in the very distant past that he would always see Captain Flint on holiday, and the whole time he wondered if things had been better for him or not. However, Jim has long forgotten about Captain Flint and Silver once he came to this place and started to think that this could all be a bit of an accident.
At the beginning of the book, Silver gives a little information about his brother James, who went on to become a physician named David. Since James was there, there were reports of his being sick, and James soon died.
“Nowhere is in our city more hospitable than the seas.” — Silver, explaining his love for his crew.
“The ocean is cold, dangerous, and cruel. Every word you say on this ship reminds me of the ocean. It is warm, hot, and deep. Sometimes I think of cold men.” —Silver’s comment after watching his brother die.
“Your father and mother are still alive at this moment. They may be suffering and dying, but their children are safe in this place and are all on their way to recovery.” —James Blackpool.
“He took up medicine there.” — Silver, referring to silver that James bought shortly before he died, “As we go into the great winter of the first year of my retirement, I

The main idea of the story is finding the treasure. Ben Gunn has lived on the island for three years, and knows where the treasure lies. Before the pirates find Jim and his mother, Jim grabs a key and an oilskin packet from the old sea chest. Jim’s father dies, and he and his mother flee to the nearby town and ask them to help them but they refuse to. They find a nearby bridge to hide under, and escape from the pirates. Finally, the people from the town decide to come to Jim and his mothers
