Note

The page after p.138 in vol. 1 is numbered 139-360.

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.

Pagination and register continuous in vols. 2 and 3.

In some copies vols. 2 and 3 have separate pagination and register.

Uncontrolled note

WARNING: Don't match without ascertaining that pagination and register are continuous in vols.2 and 3. Variants will need a new record. Rematch in process
