On occasion, apparent errors appear in quoted text, in which case they stand uncorrected but are noted.
Some items in the Index appear out of alphabetic order. These have been marked with a leading ‘*’, but have not been moved.
The Index reference to ‘Fontainbleau’ on p. 704 is spelled ‘Fountainbleau', and has been corrected. This places the item in the wrong place, alphabetically, and so has been marked with ‘*’.
Those errors deemed most likely to be the printer’s (and there are many) have been corrected, and are noted below. The references are to the page and line in the original.
