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.
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.
The pages in the introductory chapter “Adventurers” were not numbered. Transcriber did so with Roman numbers.
[Page 210]: “the overload Joy” may be a misprint for “the overloaded Joy”.
