Item Description:	"Two hundred and fifty copies." The charter and various narratives are taken from volume 3 of Hakluyt's Collection of early voyages. "The first voyage to America under the charge and direction of Sir Walter Ralegh, knight, 1584" (pages [107]-127) is supposed to be by Capt. Arthur Barlow. The first part of "The second voyage ... 1585" (pages [129]-142) is probably by Sir Richard Grenville; the remainder (pages 143-181) is by Ralph Lane. "The third voyage ... 1586" (pages [183]-186) is anonymous. "A briefe and true report of the new found land of Virginia ... by Thomas Heriot," pages [187]-244. "The fourth voyage ... 1587" (pages [245]-270) is given anonymously by Hakluyt. A letter from White to Hakluyt, accompanying his account of the fifth voyage, is here appended to the fourth voyage (p. 270-273) "The fifth voyage ... 1590" (pages [275]-299) is by "Governor" John White
