New York: Sold by R. Aitken, bookseller, opposite the London Coffee-House, Front-Street., (Price, bound, one dollar.), 1776. 4, 342 [i.e. 340] pages, [6] leaves of plates : illustrations.

Second edition, a re-issue of the sheets of the first edition (Evans 14440), leaves re-issued without the list of subscribers and appendix; this copy was originally incomplete, as it lacked the title, the engraved dedication to John Ellis, and the folding table of Georgia exports formerly bound before page 104. However, I had the work professionally rebound in full leather and had facsimile copies of the title page and dedication. The first page of text is also chipped, with some loss, as seen in the pics. This copy is illustrated with all six full-page engravings, this re-issue did not include the three maps that appeared in the first edition; see ESTC W37501.
