Young Jim Hawkins and peg-legged Long John Silver set sail for adventure in Robert Louis Stevenson's classic tale of dastardly pirates, swashbuckling heroes, buried treasure and a young boy's amazing courage.

I married a stranger

Doubt interferes in the spirit of Emma. Does she really know the man she married?
