Notes: Attribution - sourced almost exclusively from Samuel Fauche, who published the work in 1776 and 1780. The STN also dealt in a Parisian edition in 2 volumes (6 copies in stock 1 June 1785), as advertised in their 1785 catalogue. It has not always been possible from STN manuscripts to isolate which transactions relate to which editions.
