Book description
In this last of Spike's hilarious reinterpretations of the classic
works of litarature, all the familiar faces of Robert Louis
Stevenson's original version appear: Squire Trelawney, Jim Hawkins and
Long John Silver. But they are joined by Groucho Marx - and Long
John's parrot plays a starring role.
This rip-roaring adventure of the hunt for buried treasure unravels
faster than Ben Gunn's pants, with plenty of laughs along the way.
Rude and irreverent as ever, Spike's rendering of this classic tale is
as chock-full of gems as Cap'n Flint's treasure chest.
Spike Milligan was awarded the CBE in 1992 for his work as an
entertainer, broadcaster and writer. His published works include poetry,
novels, letters, scripts, general humour, his highly acclaimed series of
war memoirs and this According to... series.
