Book Description
“The Story of a Lie”has a curious bibliography. It was written in August, 1879 on a voyage from Glasgow to New York, “in a slantindicular cabin, with the table playing bob-cherry with the ink-bottle.” It was sold to Kegan Paul’s “withered babe, the New Quarterly,” a periodical of brief existence, where it appeared in October, 1879, having been forwarded to Mr. Sidney Colvin immediately on the author’s arrival in America. R. L. S. was anxious to know what impression it made upon his friends, who were told to “ remember that it was written at sea in great anxiety of mind,” but it did not, in the agitated history of his affairs, then attract much notice. Nearly three years later, when Stevenson was at Davos, some one prepared “The Story of a Lie” for book publication in England.

Book Description
Squire trelawney, Dr. Livesey, and the rest of these gentlemen having asked me to write down the whole particulars about Treasure Island, from the begin ning to the end, keeping nothing back but the bearings of the island, and that only because there is still treas ure not yet lifted, I take up my pen in the year Of grace 17 and go back to the time when my father kept the Admiral Benbow inn, and the brown Old seaman, with the sabre cut, first took up his lodging under our roof. I remember him as if it were yesterday, as he came plodding to the inn door, his sea chest following behind him in a hand-barrow a tall, strong, heavy, nut-brown man; his tarry pigtail falling over the shoulders of his soiled blue coat; his hands ragged and scarred, with black, broken nails and the sabre cut across one cheek.
