Edition Notes

Atlas has engraved t.-p.: History of the British West Indies ... London, Printed for the proprietors, 1818.

This work originally appeared in 2 vols., London, 1793. The 2d edition, London, 1801, was enlarged by the addition of v. 3, which was merely another issue of the author's "An historical survey of the island of Saint Domingo," London, 1801 (originally published 1797) In the 5th edition, the order of articles in v. 1-3 is somewhat altered from that of the 2d.

The Continuation (v. 4-5) appears first in this edition.
