Has almost all the words.
My understanding is that the original did not. They were filled back afterwards as the editors and commentators figured them out. Some of those have never been 'filled in'. Or that, in short, is what I remember reading in the editorial note to a print copy I picked up an my girlfriend's place a while ago - I know is was Hapgood's translation, but I couldn't tell you the editor.
The version above is pretty free of errors, decently formatted, and with pretty illustrations.
If you want a free one, I can't help. |
Thanks. I just told Amazon to send a sample to my iPad which I will check out tomorrow. It's the D-- type words that blow the deal.
