    • This is the first English edition to be credited to Mary Shelley.
    • A good many substantive changes in the 1823 edition, though these were probably made by Shelley's father William Godwin, who arranged publication of the second edition. Mary accepted the 1823 text as the basis for her own changes made for the 1831 third edition. (Source: E. B. Murray, "Changes in the 1823 Edition of Frankenstein", The Library, 3:4 (December 1981), 320-27.)
