I'm getting confused now, with all these different editions!

All these measurements are listed on page 27 and page 28 of Petrie's second edition with a table of his adjusted measurements ay the bottom of page 27.

I suspect that this is the 1885 edition, that is proving so elusive online ... The 1883 one you can find everywhere, but not the 1885 one ...
