TRANSCRIBER'S NOTES:

1) Passages in italics are surrounded by _underscores_.

2) A few chapter sub-headings do not end with a period. For consistency,
  obvious errors have been corrected by ending these with a period.

3) A few obvious misprints where sentences did not end with a period have
  been corrected.

4) The words "manoeuvres" and "manoeuvre" use oe ligature in the original.

5) The following misprints have been corrected:
  "which we pet in our" corrected to "which we put in our" (page 243)
  "Britian" corrected to "Britain" (page 271)

6) Other than the corrections listed above, printer's inconsistencies in
  spelling, punctuation, hyphenation and ligature usage have been retained.
