The book tells about the search for pirate captain Flint’s treasure. The story begins with the Inn "Admiral Benbow", located near Bristol. An elderly man named Billy Bones comes into the inn. He is afraid of something and he asks Jim Hawkins the son of the innkeeper to accompany him everywhere. He was hiding from the Black Dog, who soon found him. There is a fight between them. After being wounded, the Black Dog quickly runs away. And Billy Bones has a heart attack after that fight. Lying in bed, he tells the innkeeper's son about captain Flint's treasure. Soon Bones dies. Jimmy Hawkins and his mother open the old man's chest and take out the money and some pack. Jimmy gives the bag to Dr Livesey and his friend Trelawney. Comrades decide to go for treasure and take the young man as a cabin boy with them. Trelawney goes to a nearby town to buy a ship and hire a crew. Due to Trelawny’s chattering the whole city learns about the treasure. They bought the ship "Hispaniola". Smollett becomes captain. Former one-legged sailor John Silver is hired as a cook. Upon arrival on the island, the young man learns that Silver is preparing a riot and that all the sailors are pirates. Pirates with Silver swim to the island on a boat. The young cabin boy goes together with them. On the shore, Jim quickly runs away from the pirates and meets Ben Gunn. A new friend of the young man was a pirate who was left, by his comrades. He said that the search for treasure was not a success. He also said that he hid the boat on the island. At that time Dr. Livesey together with Trelawney, 3 servants and sailor Abe slip away deeper and deeper in the island. Jim Hawkins finds a hidden boat and goes to the ship, where he was caught by pirates. Pirates find a treasure map. But they don’t find any gold in the pit. The pirates intend to kill the boy. The young guy is saved by Dr. Livesey. A little later, Jim gets into the cave where Ben Gunn lives. Ben Gunn found the treasure long ago and dragged it into the cave. Soon all friends left the island and arrived in England. Gentlemen honestly shared the treasure among all of them.
