Series Number: 1
Language: English
Note: In The Pacha of Many Tales (editions: Saunders and Otley, 1835; Bentley, 1849 --both viewed at HathiTrust), the first story told by Huckaback the sailor constitutes much of volume I, chapter 5. The chapter begins with a portion of the frame story that introduces the "French renegade" Huckaback to the reader and to the Pacha's presence and may fairly be considered a Prologue to the seven voyages; in other words, that portion of the frame story of the book which frames the seven stories told by Huckaback. This first story told by Huckaback spans his early training and career as a barber as well as his first voyage, so-called at its conclusion: "Such, your highness is the history of my First Voyage, and the incidents which resulted from it." It begins under mid-page heading "Huckaback" (Bentley, top of p. 92) and continues under running title "Huckaback", which is common to all seven voyages.

3/6?Prior to decimilisation (1968-1971), UK books were priced in shillings, or shillings and pence, where 20 shillings equals one pound and 12 old pence equals one shilling. Shillings were indicated with a variety of suffixes, e.g. 3s, 3', 3", 3/ all mean 3 shillings. Any number after that is additional pence, usually 6 (half a shilling) but sometimes 3 or 9 (a quarter of a shilling or three-quarters of a shilling).
