N.B. Some pages came without OCR text and needed to be rotated 90 degrees for the Wikisource OCR to work. The rotated versions of these pages (or in one case just a portion of a page) appear in duplicate at the end of the page list. The "Topographical Analysis" at the end of the book appears to be a sort of gazetteer the editor has tacked on. The material is the editor's and only marginally related to Jefferson's material, so I am going to omit it in the Wikisource edition. It would be nice to get a scan for the map at the front of the book (only a scrap of it appears in these scans).
