John Bell, a near neighbour of the Glasgow Press, entrusted his Travels to the Foulis press, "whose beautiful fount of type enhances the value of the book." The usual errata table at the rear of the publication has been replaced by "Alterations by the author", evidently the printer declined to accept any responsibility. (Murray, D. Robert & Andrew Foulis and the Glasgow press. Glasgow, 1913, pp.53)
