–Most of this work is a Russian transl. of the manuscript also translated by Michael (see Waxell, 1962), but Michael's ed. lacks the material on pp. 138ff. here. This latter material is Waxell's report translated in Golder (1922). Steller's sea cow, 126-128, 149, etc.?

The Russian expedition to America. With an introduction and notes by M. A. Michael.
New York, Collier Books: 1-190.
–"Translated from Johan Skalberg's Danish version, Vitus Berings eventyrlige opdagerfærd 1733-1743 [Copenhagen, Rosenkilde & Bagger: 1-139, 1948], by M. A. Michael." Originally published in Engl. under the title The American Expedition (London, Edinburgh, & Glasgow, Wm. Hodge: 1-236, 1952). The German manuscript original was first discovered and published in part by E. Büchner (1891). The MS. itself was lost during the Russian Revolution, then reappeared in a bookshop and was purchased by the State Library in Leningrad, according to Michael's introduction to this ed. (p. 22). A photocopy of this MS. was the basis for the Danish translation which in turn is translated here into English. Steller's sea cow, 157-159.
