INDEX

Transcriber’s Note: Obvious printer’s errors have been corrected. Discrepancies in spelling and hyphenation have generally been left as is, unless there was an overwhelming majority for one option, in which case an error was assumed and rectified.

The map is clickable for a larger version (if the device you’re reading this on supports that) but unfortunately, some of the place names on it got lost down the fold.
