Transcriber’s Note
Reading edition
Footnotes appear sparingly. The ten instances have been moved to the end of the text.
Illustrations and photographs were not included in pagination. They have been re-positioned to avoid falling mid-paragraph.
To reduce download time, the illustrations are presented as smaller images. By clicking on the image, one will open a larger image. The image will open in the current tab or window; a right click should permit one to open the image in a separate tab/window.
Please see the transcriber’s note at the end of this text for details regarding the handling of any textual issues encountered during its preparation.
