TRANSCRIBER'S NOTES
Page numbers in the table of contents and in the transcriber's notes below refer to the original printed version.
Footnotes have been moved to the end of their respective chapters.
The following typographical errors in the original printed version have been noted below and corrected only where indicated.
CHARACTERS IN THE FRENCH AND INDIAN WAR SERIES
The character Louis de Galissonnière appears here as "GALISONNIÈRE." Although he appears only at one other point in this book, the correct spelling comes from his more frequent appearances in another novel of the series, The Masters of The Peaks.
The captain of the Hawk, Stuart Whyte, is listed here as "WHITE."
The lieutenant of the Hawk, John Lanham, is listed here as "LATHAM."
