Transcriber’s notes: The scans on which this e-book has been based have been made available by the Internet Archive. Depending on the browser used and its settings, not all symbols, tables and illustrations may display correctly. Footnotes have been moved to directly under the paragraph or table they refer to. Some illustrations have been moved to where they fit best. Hyperlinks to illustrations link directly to the illustrations, not to the page numbers. The four maps are available in larger sizes and with more detail through hyperlinks in the left margin. Page 40: the July 1886: possibly a word is missing (issue or similar). Page 254 and further: body weights given in the tables do not always result in the average weights given in the tables. Where the scans were not clear, the text has been completed based on other scanned copies and on ‘best guesses.’ Inconcistencies (including hyphenation) and (typographical) errors in the original text have not been changed, except as indicated below. Some names are spelled inconsistently even when they (probably) refer to the same person: Mc... and M’..., Haig and Haigh, Hornemann, Horneman and Horniman, Langmore and Longmore, and Revell and Revel, etc. These have not been changed. The erratum has been corrected in the text. Changes and corrections made to the text: - Some obvious typographical and punctuation errors have been corrected silently;

- page 53 (chapter title): OARMANSHIP changed to OARSMANSHIP;
