註釋

Of the handful of early American libraries of great significance, few rivaled the depth and breadth of William Byrd's collection. Made accessible for the first time, this library tells us much about its early American intellectual milieu. This exhaustive bibliography with its thorough introduction presents the great library and its collector in their rightful cultural context. Enhanced by a mammoth forty-page index to the over 2,500 items, this book will be an invaluable resource for literary and cultural historians, book collectors, and anyone who seeks a better understanding of reading and the circulation of ideas in early America.
