Doctor Livesey

How Stevenson describes him:

"the neat, bright doctor with his powder white as snow, and his bright, black eyes and pleasant manners".

His role in Treasure Island:

A decent, honourable man, who is practical and sensible even when things get tough. Due to his commonsense the treasure is found and brought safely home.

Doctor Livesey said,

"It was an interesting little trip - slight bit of bother on the way, but nothing serious".
