Note 18 — INTRODUCTION.

This book was reprinted at Genoa in 1857, with additions, edited by Giuseppe Banchero, and translated into English, and published in 1823 in London, as Memorials of a Collection of Authentic Documents, etc. A Spanish edition was issued at Havana in 1867 (Leclerc, nos. 134, 135). Wagner, in his Colombo und seine Entdeckungen (Leipsic, 1825), makes use of Spotorno, and translates the letters. These and other letters are also given in Torre’s Scritti di Colombo; in the Lettere autografe di Colombo, Milan, 1863; and in Navarrete’s Coleccion, vol. ii. following the text of those in the Veraguas collections.
