Notes: 

Volumes 1-4 are dated 1779. Volumes 5-10 are dated 1781, and the imprint differs, with 'C. Dilly' in place of 'E. and C. Dilly,' 'E. Newbery' in place of 'F. Newbery,' and the disappearance of Baldwin, Becket, and Davis. The imprint for Volumes 5-10 reads: 'Printed by J. Nichols; For C. Bathurst, J. Buckland, W. Strahan, J. Rivington and Sons, T. Davies, T. Payne, L. Davis, W. Owen, B. White, S. Crowder, T. Caslon, T. Longman, B. Law, C. Dilly, J. Dodsley, J. Wilkie, J. Robson, J. Johnson, T. Lowndes, G. Robinson, T. Cadell, J. Nichols, E. Newbery, T. Evans, J. Ridley, R. Baldwin, G. Nicol, Leigh and Sotheby, J. Bew, N. Conant, J. Murray, W. Fox, J. Bowen.'Neither of the Bodleian copies are recorded by the ESTC.
