Notes:

The text for this electronic version of this book was taken from an original printed form, revised for XHTML/CSS and to follow our own formatting preferences. Pagination of the original edition has been included.

The first edition, first printing is distinguishable by the presense of a small list of errata at the end of the index, and the presence of four pages of advertisement for other volumes in the American Men of Letters series, of which Edgar Allan Poe is the last one noted as published. By the second printing, the errata had been applied to the text, and the list and advertisements removed.

The errata appears as follows:

ERRATA.

Page 3, line 18. For “une coeur” read “un coeur.”

Page 14, line 17. For “McKenzie” read “MacKenzie.”

Page 30, foot-note. For “Shepard” read “Shepherd.”

Technically, the item on page 30 is possessive, thus “Shepherd’s.” All three items are noted in place within the text of this electronic edition.
