TRANSCRIBER'S NOTES

—Fixed plain print and punctuation errors.

—Page 33: The word "Sose" has been changed in "Sôse" as below.

—Page 96: "Monte Cassiano" is obviously an error; corrected as "Monte Cassino".

—Page 169: Every source gives "Navaratna" as a single word; I left it as spelled by author.

—Page 291: "united kingdom" has not been capitalised because doesn't refer to the modern United Kingdom.

—Page 322: Colons spaced because they mean separation between words and not punctuation, following the ancient inscription style.
