Historia
Dead Man's Chest, written as a sequel to Treasure Island, begins with Long John Silver's escape from the merchantman ship Hispaniola at Puerta Plata and culminates with the American Revolution more than a decade later. It describes in rich detail the unholy alliance between this softhearted cutthroat, his teenage nephew, David Noble, and Captain John Paul Jones. Together, they work to retrieve a king's ransom of Spanish gold and jewels from a dead man's chest.

Good concept, poor execution
Revisado: 10-02-16
Was looking forward to the book, and over all it was ok. But the plot had too much unnecessary complexity, and reliance on a narrative involving the American Revolution as background, even though it was clear that the author knew little of that event.
Among other things was the presentation of Thomas Jefferson in 1775 as an elderly and important statesman, at a time when he was 25 years old, and still an obscure Virginian who had done none of the stuff yet for which he would become famous. Other errors of historic detail abound.
Ok book, but thè historic inaccuracies rubbed me wrong
