Treasure Island Imagery

In treasure island the author uses a lot of imagery. i think he uses it to really show how hard times were back then. the way he describes the looks and the smells that pirates have really makes me understand the book better and that time peroid.
also whenever the author introduced a new setting he described it very well. one thing the Robert Louis Stevenson did that really helped paint a picture in my head was his use of jargon and pirate terms.one example is all there terms for the different parts of the ship. overall if treasure island didnt have the imagery it has the book would be alot more hard to follow and would be confusing.
