Punctuation and spelling were made consistent when a predominant preference was found in this book; otherwise they were not changed. (Exception: “Kleber” was changed to “KlÉber”, even though the former occured more often than the latter, because the accented form is the correct one.)

Simple typographical errors were corrected; occasional unbalanced quotation marks retained.

Ambiguous hyphens at the ends of lines were retained; occurrences of inconsistent hyphenation have not been changed.

Index not checked for proper alphabetization or correct page references.
