Transcriber’s Notes

Punctuation, hyphenation, and spelling were made consistent when a predominant preference was found in this book; otherwise they were not changed.

Simple typographical errors were corrected; occasional unbalanced quotation marks retained.

Ambiguous hyphens at the ends of lines were retained.

Index not checked for proper alphabetization or correct page references.

Page [190]: “irreconciliable” probably is a misprint for “irreconcilable”.

Page [226]: Index entry for “Ship-builders” referenced page v, but the term was split across pages vi-vii, and is shown here as being on page vi.
