Reading edition
Transcriber's Notes:
(1) Obvious spelling, punctuation, and typographical errors have been corrected. On page 99, footnote marker [6] is duplicated - it has been altered to [381] and the surrounding footnotes adjusted suitably. Footnote [616] has an uncorrectable duplication of "Ionian Isles".
(2) Table V in the Appendix has been divided into two parts (Scotland and Ireland), in view of its page width.
(3) All footnotes have been moved to the end of the book, with html links.
(4) The cover image was created by the transcriber and is placed in the public domain.
