I was personally hoping for the footnotes to be more about the cultural and literary influences of Lovecraft and less about the real-life locations of these stories (though those were interesting too). Also, while this is a hefty collection of important Lovecraft stories, a lot of other important ones are missing from this particular collection, which you'll find in volume 2 of this annotated series, Beyond Arkham.
