A comparison of this work with Grievc's English translation, and the Prench translation 

 from Grieve, shows at a glance that Grieve's rendering is greatly defective. All the plates 

 and maps of the original, the editor tells us, are here reproduced, some of them, however, 

 from new designs. The work forms vol. ii of the Voyage en Siberie of M. rAbb6 Chappe 

 d'Auteroche, published by Debure at Paris in 1768.
