Notes AAS notes:
Burney's Tales of fancy was originally published in London, with vol. 1, containing The shipwreck, appearing in 1816, and v. 2-3, containing Country neighbours, in 1820. An American edition of Country neighbours was published at New York by William B. Gilley in 1820 (Shoemaker 624). Additionally an advertisement in the Jan. 14, 1817, issue of the Commercial advertiser, New York, suggests that Gilley also published an edition of The shipwreck, and an advertisement in the April 15, 1820, issue of the Repertory suggests that a Boston edition of Country neighbors was published by West, Richardson & Lord.
Dedicated to the Right Hon. Lady Crewe.
