Originally published in 1985, as with the earlier volumes in the
series, the reader of The Rover is here provided a Verbal Index,
citing each type and its location, a Word Frequency Table, and a
Field of Reference. Using the tables in this concordance, the
reader should be better able to address the issue of style and
determine on a more informed basis whether Conrad has deliberately
eschewed the adjectival and even the figurative in favour of a
lean, spare style, or whether he has simply tangled his style in
rhetorical excesses and imprecisions.

Set in eastern Borneo during the 1880s, Almayer's Folley recreates
the conflicts of imperial Europe with the colonised East Indies
through Joseph Conrad's story of Kaspar Almayer's personal tragedy:
his loss of both his daughter of mixed race to her native lover and
his dream of finding enough gold to return to Amsterdam in triumph.
The introduction gives the history of the composition over almost
five years as Conrad went to the Congo, Australia, the Ukraine,
Belgium, Switzerland, and France as a seaman and on holiday. The
novel has suffered seven layers of unauthorised intervention by
typists and publishers, as set out in the essay on the text and the
apparatus. The notes explain Malay terms and historical references,
and there are two regional maps. This is the text of Almayer's
Folley, established through modern textual scholarship, as Conrad
would have like it to have appeared in 1895.
