This edition collates almost the same as the
preceding London edition of
1815. The large map and plates are the same in
both, but the editions differ
typographically; the 1817 edition is
entirely reset. The following variations
should be noted: A comma at the
end of the third line of the title-pages, not
in the 1815 edition. On the
verso of sig. a6, in vol. i, "Directions for placing
the Maps", not in the 1815 edition. A half-title to vol. ii, with verso
blank,
making sig. A in six, of which this half-title is the first leaf.
In vol. iii sig. A
is arranged in six leaves, as follows: Title, with
printer's name on verso;
"Contents of the third volume", pp.
[iii]–xii.
