Near Fine with no sophistications (a good thing, meaning that it has had no work done to it), lean to spine, light wear at edges and modest soiling to cloth (much less than typically found). Minor staining to fore edge with slight toning and thumbing to contents. An excellent copy of the classic coming-of-age literary adventure novel. First book publication. It was originally serialized from 1881 to 1882 in the children's magazine Young Folks under the title Treasure Island or the Mutiny of the Hispaniola. It inspired numerous film adaptations.
