Notes: "A claim was made that the work was written, not by Mr. Walter, but by Mr. Benjamin Robins ... this has never been substantiated except by mere assertion; and though Robins was certainly employed as sub-editor and assistant ... there is no reason to doubt the plain statement on the titlepage ... Whether edited by Walter or Robins, the book was virtually written by Anson himself"--DNB.
