Edition Notes
Introduction signed "Outis, secretary" [i.e. pseud. of Henry Stevens]
Title within ornamental border.
Cover title: A briefe and true report of the new found land of Virginia by Thomas Hariot ... Ed. by Henry Stevens of Vermont.
Colophon: Reprinted by C. Whittingham, 1877.
Reprint of the original English ed., 1588, from the copy in the Grenville Library, British Museum.
Privately printed for H. N. Stevens.
"One hundred and fifty copies only printed on small paper, and thirty-three copies only on large paper, of which this is small paper no. 32. H. N. S."
The biography and bibliography of Hariot, which was at first intended to form part of the introduction, is issued as "a separate and distinct volume" but uniform with the Briefe report, as a companion volume. cf. Introduction: p. xi.
"The two volumes, Hariot's Virginia and the Life of Hariot, were practically complete ... fourteen years ago" [i.e. in 1886]--H. N. Stevens, Explan. note prefixed to the life of Hariot.
