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.

Review Quote

[Spike Milligan's] wonderful According to… series is undoubtedly one of the literary endeavours he will be remembered for… shot through with the surrealistic humour that is Spike's trademark… crazy.
