Treasure Island
What does the squire reveal about his character through his letter
its for a study guide
its for a study guide
I think the Squire shows himself to be resourceful but a little naive as well. He seems quite pleased with himself at securing the ship (HISPANIOLA.) as well as her crew. He boasts of the ease which he did it but really did not check who the crew might be. The squire is certainly eager but a little too trusting and not cautious enough. The whole process seemed a little too easy to be above board.
He trusts Long John Silver because Long John said he fought in the military. The squire believes everything someone tells him. ... Long John Silver owns this tavern so he might not be a pirate or buccaneer.
