Résumé
This document describes the reconstruction of the unpublished table of logarithms to 15 places computed by Edward Sang (1805-1890), extended to one million. Sang's table covered the range from 100000 to 370000, split in 27 volumes held at Edinburgh. The reconstruction covers the range from 100000 to one million and spans 90 volumes. These 90 volumes have also been gathered in one separate file for easy research.
