• Italic text denoted by _underscores_. • Small capitals converted to ALL CAPS. • Images relocated close to related content. • Sidenotes relocated close to related content. • The original has a sidenote at the start of every page to indicate the current year and sometimes a reminder of the current location. Where the year and location are clear from the text and previous sidenotes, these page-top notes have been omitted. • Footnotes have been renumbered consecutively and relocated close to related content. • Punctuation and other obvious typographic inaccuracies were silently corrected. • Archaic and variable spelling has been preserved. • Variations in hyphenation and compound words have been preserved. • The list of Illustrations credits “_Dido_ at Chusan” to Anonymous. But in the text, Keppel notes that Watson of the _Modeste_ made the drawing. Naval records show that Rundle Burges Watson commanded the _Modeste_ at this time. List of Illustrations updated to give Watson credit for the drawing. • The index that is in volume III has been replicated into volumes I and II. Only those page numbers pertaining to this volume have been linked.
