Notes
"King James' Bible ... second folio edition, 1613,11 ... commonly known as the 'Great She Bible.' The general title is usually dated 1613, though the NT title bears date 1611. Probably the greater part of the book was printed in 1611, but the publication, for some reason or other, was delayed till 1613"--Herbert, A.S. Engl. Bible, 319
"The words 'Appointed to be read in Churches' appear on the NT title, as well as on the general title"--Herbert, A.S. Engl. Bible, 319.
"The Genealogies of Holy Scriptures and a Map are inserted before Genesis. [They] were compiled by John Speed (1552?-1629) ... with the assistance of Hugh Broughton (1549-1612). ... Though they really formed no part of the book, the Genealogies and Map are generally found in copies of the early editions of King James' Bible"--Herbert, A.S. Engl. Bible, 309.
