Transcriber's Notes

Changes to the text are limited to correction of typographical errors are listed at the end of the book. Minor corrections to formatting or punctuation are made without comment.

Most figures and plates include a link to a larger image, except for some whose size or quality does not warrant it. Illustrations and plates have been re-positioned to appear as close as possible following the first reference in the text, while retaining their numbered order. Plate XXX and Plate XXXI appeared in reverse order in the original book.

Text in blackletter font is presented as larger, bold and italic.

Footnotes have been numbered sequentially throughout the book and re-positioned at the end of chapters.
