First volume was printed well before it was actually published, probably as early as 1812; the dropped "5" in the imprint date, 1815 (v. 1) has obviously been overprinted on another number
Produced criticism from French-Canadians, who accused the author of prejudice and ill-will against Canadians
Apparently planned initially to write one volume (v. 1 bears "Finis" at end)
Errata at front (v. 1)
Contents: V. 1. From its first discovery, to the peace of 1763 -- v. 2. From its first discovery, to the year 1791
