  • Transcriber’s Note:
    • Missing or obscured punctuation was corrected.
    • An entry for the Index was added to the Table of Contents.
    • The Table of Contents was reformatted to be more readable.
    • In the list of Illustrations, the phrase “The Same” referred to the item above it. Because the location couldn’t be right justified, this wasn’t clear and the text has been literally duplicated from the item above. In the Bibliography the same was done with ditto marks (for “LÜbke”), which can’t be aligned in HTML the way the was on the printed page.
    • Typographical errors were silently corrected.
    • Inconsistent spelling and hyphenation were made consistent only when a predominant form was found in this book.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate.

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
