If this dont fetch the kids, why, they have gone rotten since my day. Will you be surprised to learn that it is about Buccaneers...that its all about a map, and a treasure, and a mutiny, and a derelict ship...and a sea-cook with one leg, and a sea-song with the chorus Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum (at the third Ho you heave at the capstan bars), which is a real buccaneers song, only known to the crew of the late Captain Flint...? The letter races on breathlessly, like a child confiding a discovery: Its awful fun boys stories; you just indulge the pleasure of your heart, thats all. --Robert Louis Stevenson, writing to W.E. Henley in August 1881
