TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE

The weird spelling in this book is mostly intentional, and it has been

retained as in the original, this includes inconsistencies in spelling

and hyphenation. A few changes to which seemed more likely typographic

errors have been made, they are listed at the end of the book.

Titles in the Table ov Kontents do not always correspond exactly to the

titles in the main text, this has been retained, but the spelling has

been changed in some cases to match the text. Some texts, near the end

of the book are printed with no title in the original, this has been

maintained too. The List of Illustrations contains some entries for

non-existing (in this edition, at least) illustrations and the numbering

is not consecutive, this reproduces the printed book as well.

The original printed book was apparently divided into large "sections",

which were marked only as running page headers. In this version the

titles for these sections are written between {braces} where they start.
