Any remaining variations in spelling or unusual usage of language are as in the original text, for example, the author's use of annihilate in the past tense without the usual 'd' ending.

Some illustrations have been shifted slightly so that they are not in the middle of a paragraph. As the full page illustrations were originally on numbered pages, this has left some unused numbers and apparent gaps in the page numbering. These pages are retained as comments in the html, and can be seen by viewing the page source. Page number references to illustrations are unchanged in the text, but are linked directly to the particular illustration.

The forward advertising material and frontispiece illustration have been moved to follow the title page. The illustrated endpaper map has been included following the Index. Alphabetic links have been added to the Index for ease of navigation.
