TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE
Some pages at the front of the book have identical numbering, pages [iii to viii] and then [v to viii]. 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.
The 2-column list of officers on pages [70/71] has been reordered so that all Captains precede all Lieutenants.
All { brackets have been removed from the Table on [page 96], since there is no ambiguity in the etext table. This Table has a 'footnote' referenced by * which remains placed at the bottom of the Table.
Except for those changes noted below, all misspellings in the text, and inconsistent or archaic usage, have been retained. For example, Field Marshal, Field-Marshal; bedchamber, bed-chamber; patrole; piquet; riband; signalized; rencounter.
[Pg 19], 'Philip Naizon' is also called '[Philip Naison]' elsewhere in the book. Other external sources are also inconsistent in this regard.
[Pg 22], 'Royal Fusileers' replaced by 'Royal Fusiliers'.
[Pg 70], 'Lt.-Cl. Patrick' replaced by 'Lt.-Col. Patrick'.
