Transcriber's Notes:

Illustrations originally printed in the middle of sentences have been
moved to the nearest paragraph break.

Footnotes have been moved to the paragraph break following the footnote
marker.

Because sections of this book were written by different people, accent,
spelling and hyphen usage is inconsistent. These inconsistencies have
been preserved except where noted below. Since page numbers have not
been preserved in this version, enough text has been retained for a
