Here is the sypnosis of the story. You can also find some dramatisations on You Tube.
TREASURE
ISLAND by
Robert Louis Stevenson
adapted
for radio drama by Ignatz Ratzkywazky
for
Red Room Radio Redux
Background:
Treasure
Island, by
Scottish novelist Robert Louis Stevenson, is the 18th
century tale of young Jim Hawkins, who sets sail as a cabin boy on
the Hispaniola, on a voyage in search of treasure hidden on a faraway
island. In the course of his harrowing adventures, he comes across a
motley assortment of devious seaman: Bill Bones, Black Dog, Old Blind
Pew, Ben Gunn and that most notorious pirate of all, the one-legged
Long John Silver, with the ever-present chattering parrot on his
shoulder. Along the way, Jim uncovers the crew’s plot of mutiny,
comes face to face with their greedy and bloodthirsty tricks, and
helps to rescue the ship as well as the stash of buried gold.
The
story is told by Jim as an adult, looking back on his youthful,
daring adventure. We begin by finding young Jim at home with his
mother at the Admiral Benbow Inn, where the boy meets his first
shadowy buccaneer, Bill Bones, and unknowingly comes into possession
of an old treasure map…a map that everyone is after...

John
Silver)，和站在他肩膀上的活潑鸚鵡。沿路上，賀詹姆揭發了叛變的船員們，親眼目睹他們的貪婪以及各種詭計，最後拯救了航海船以及找出埋藏深處的黃金寶藏。
本故事是賀詹姆成年後回顧他的青年冒險故事。從最一開始年輕的詹姆和他的母親在本葆海軍上將酒店家裡，這位小男孩認識了第一位神出鬼沒的海盜--骨頭比爾，並在無意中得到了一張古老藏寶圖…這張寶藏圖無數人正虎視眈眈著...
