Obvious typos corrected. Inconsistencies in punctuation kept as in
original.
Inconsistent spelling and hyphenation made consistent, e.g.: handbook,
shipboard, to-day, chargé(s) d’affaires.
Spelling of Quebec and Colombia made consistent, but otherwise
spellings of city and country names left as printed in the original.
Unclear name suffix in the original was confirmed as Jacob Meyer Jr.
elsewhere.
Page number in Table of Contents for Lecture III—Consular
Service—Duties changed to 83 to match actual start of chapter.
The Diplomatic Service and Consular Service tables in the Appendix have
footnotes that are referenced in multiple entries across the original
pages in the text. Rather than retain multiple footnotes with
identical content, multiple anchors in the text may refer to a single
note.
P. 208 in the original indicates a footnote * that has no corresponding
anchor on that page, so it does not appear here.
The column headers with vertical text in the Synopsis of Commercial
Treaties table on pp. 212-213 have been moved to a Key.
The Synopsis of Commercial Treaties table uses Unicode characters
dagger (U+2020) and double dagger (U+2021). If the device font does
not support these characters, † and ‡, they may not appear correctly.
Indent of Lethbridge, Alberta in table on p. 226 made to match
surrounding entries since it falls in alphabetical order of those.
If the device allows, some full page images can be clicked on to view a
larger version.
Italic text indicated by underscores surrounding _italic text_.
Small capitals have been converted to ALL CAPS.
Some descriptions of illustrations have been added.
