The Dutch edition of Pike, 1812-13, is as follows: _[1812-13.]--Reize | naar | Nieuw-Mexico | en de Binnenlanden van | Louisiana, | Voorgegaan door eenen togt | naar de Bronnen der | Mississippi, | gedaan op last van het Gouver- | nement der Vereenigde Staten | in de jaren 1805, 1806 en 1807, | door den Majoor | Z. M. Pike. | -- | Uit het Engelsch vertaald. | -- | Eerste [Tweede] Deel. | met Kaarten. | -- | Te Amsterdam, bij | C. Timmer. | MCDCCCXII [MDCCCXIII]. | Stilsteeg, N^o. 18. |_ Two vols., 8vo. Vol. I., 1812 (notice misprint of date on title page), pp. i-viii, 1-327. Vol. II., 1813, two prel. leaves, and pp. 1-374, with three maps. Printed at Amsterdam by A. Breeman & Co. In Vol. I., title leaf, verso blank, pp. i, ii; Voorberigt van den Vertaler (Translator's Preface), pp. iii-viii, dated Amsterdam, Nov. 7th, 1812; main text, pp. 1-327, of which the Mississippi voyage runs to p. 218 inclusive, and the remainder finishes the Arkansaw journey, these being respectively Pt. 1 and Pt. 2 of the orig. ed. In Vol. II. a half title and a full title make each one unpaged leaf, and the main text runs pp. 1-374, being Pt. 3 of the orig. ed. The three maps belong in this vol. The general form and style of this version are most like those of the French translation, from which, however, the Dutch differs in various particulars. It appears to have been based upon the English quarto rather than upon the original Philadelphia octavo, and to have been translated independently therefrom, as the French also was. Both the Dutch and the French editions follow the English one in working the matter of the Appendixes into the main text--in fact, _no_ edition that I know of has hitherto followed the awkward and exasperating form of Pike's own book. The anonymous Dutch translator introduces a new preface, and a few short footnotes, not reproducing those of the French translator; the three maps are re-engraved from those prepared by Antoine Nau, as in the French edition, but with lettering of the names in Dutch instead of French. The foregoing English, French, and Dutch editions were speedily followed by a German version. This seems to be a scarce book; I have not yet been able to find a copy. I presume that, like the French and Dutch, it was modeled upon the London quarto; but with what modifications, if any, aside from translation into another language, I have no idea. The latest and best edition of Pike which has hitherto appeared in the United States, was published in 1889, as follows:
