[613] [Mr. Tuckerman revised his notes and introduction in a reprint, published by Veazie in Boston in 1865. The Voyages, which had been reprinted in 3 Mass. Hist. Coll., iii., was also reissued in 1865 in a companion volume to the Rarities, the text being corrected from a copy of the “second addition,” 1675, in Harvard College Library. The earlier book usually brings £3 or £4, the later one from £5 to £10. Both are in the Carter-Brown Catalogue, ii. 1,080, 1,104. Cf. Sabin, ix. 340; Menzies, 1,104, 1,105.—Ed.]
