[Transcribers' Note]

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

Simple typographical errors were corrected, often after referencing other printings or editions of this book.

Occasional unpaired quotation marks have been retained unless the position of the missing one was obvious.

Ambiguous hyphens at the ends of lines were retained.

Extraneous commas were retained.

Illustrations have been moved closer to the relevant text.

Text uses both "Bölognese" and "Bolognese", "Bölogna" and "Bologna".

Chapter IX does not have a section VII. This appears to be a misprint, not missing text.
