Some pages at the front of the book have out-of-order roman numbering. Pages [xxiii to xxviii] are followed by [i to xix]. This has not been changed.

Obvious typographical errors and punctuation errors have been corrected after careful comparison with other occurrences within the text and consultation of external sources.

Except for those changes noted below, all misspellings in the text, and inconsistent or archaic usage, have been retained. For example, foot-guards, foot guards; hand-grenades, hand grenades; piquets.

[Pg 23], Sidenote '1783' inserted.
[Pg 26], 'and assume the' replaced by 'and assumed the'.
[Pg 32], 'at Chinsurha' replaced by 'at Chinsurah'.
