Minor errors or inconsistencies in punctuation and formatting have been silently corrected. Please see the transcriber’s [note] at the end of this text for details regarding the handling of any other textual issues encountered during its preparation.

Footnotes have been resequenced to be unique, and were moved to the end of the text. Hyperlinks are provided for ease of reference. Any references to those notes in the text have been amended as well. In the Topical Index, references to cited authors which appear only in the footnotes on the given pages are linked directly to the notes.

The illustrations have been moved to avoid falling within paragraphs. There are several maps (just prior to the Introduction, at p. [182] and at p. [216]) which are linked to full size versions and can be viewed simply by clicking on the image.
