Edition Notes
First edition in quarto.
Errors in paging: v. 1, page after p. 138 is numbered 139-360; v. 2, p. 189 misnumbered 191.
"MS. note on p.139-360 of a B.L. copy states that the first voyage in this volume, that of Commodore Byron, was intended as the third voyage in the collection but was placed as the first voyage; this seems to account for the peculiar pagination of p.139."--ESTC.
