Transcriber’s Notes
Punctuation, hyphenation, and spelling were made consistent when a
predominant preference was found in the original book; otherwise they
were not changed.
Accent marks on non-English words were not checked systematically for
errors.
Simple typographical errors were corrected; unbalanced quotation
marks were remedied when the change was obvious, and otherwise left
unbalanced.
Illustrations in this eBook have been positioned between paragraphs
and outside quotations. In versions of this eBook that support
hyperlinks, the page references in the List of Illustrations lead to
the corresponding illustrations.
The Summary at the beginning of each chapter began with a small
decorative symbol resembling a tilde. As the decoration is not
essential to the text, it has been omitted wherever it occured.
The index was not checked for proper alphabetization or correct page
references.
