Transcriber’s Notes:

This text follows the text of the original work, including inconsistencies in spelling, lay-out, hyphenation, capitalisation, etc.; these have not been changed, except as mentioned below.
Depending on the hard- and software used, not all characters and symbols may display properly.

Notes on the text:
Some words from the Index do not occur in text.
Wrong accents (Pyreneés, Lozére) have not been corrected.
Page 151, Fallmeseyer: this is possibly a reference to Jakob Philipp Fallmerayer.
Page 216, penguin eggs: this seems unlikely on the North Pole; see also the illustration which shows flying birds. This is possibly a mistranslation from the French.

Changes made to the original text:
Illustrations have been moved outside paragraphs. Footnotes have been moved to directly underneath the paragraph to which they refer.
Some obviously missing or incorrect punctuation has been corrected silently.
Coloured plates and an unnumbered illustration have been added to the List of Illustrations.
