Inconsistency in hyphenation is as in the original.
Three short footnotes have been moved into the main text, rendered in [] and in italics.
The layout of the advertising material has been standardised somewhat, and dashes inserted consistently
between reviews and their source. (In most but not all cases, a dash was present if the
source was on the same line, but not if on a different line. This distinction is impossible
to preserve in an e-text.)
Two misprinted accents on the French have been moved onto the correct letter.
Page 161: the first word on the page has been changed from "or" to "for" (there is a gap, and this best
fits the context).
Page 195: the name "Bevensey" has been changed to "Pevensey" to match other occurrences
in the book.
Page 201, first full paragraph: The comma after "masters" is possibly incorrect (a period or semi-colon would
be more grammatically correct) but the original has been retained.
Page 354: in the paragraph beginning "In that event", a colon after said has been changed to a
semi-colon, in accordance with normal practice and all other occurrences in the book.
Page 376: a reference to "De Hausée" has been changed to "de Hausée" to match every other occurrence.
