Transcriber's Notes

Inconsistent use of diacriticals in French words has been corrected except in Old French quotations.

Some illustrations have been moved so as not to break up the flow of the text, and some page numbers are omitted as a result. The original page numbers in the lists of Illustrations and Maps have been preserved, but the links point to the pages on which the illustrations and maps actually appear in this e-text.

This text contains a few words in ancient Greek. Hover the mouse over the Greek to see a pop-up transliteration, like this:
