Transcriber’s Notes
Punctuation, hyphenation, and spelling were made consistent when a predominant preference was found in this book; otherwise they were not changed.
Simple typographical errors were corrected; occasional unbalanced quotation marks retained.
Ambiguous hyphens at the ends of lines were retained.
Index not checked for proper alphabetization or correct page references.
Ditto marks in the Index have been replaced by the actual text.
Empty, featureless areas along the side(s) of some illustrations have been removed by Transcriber. This allowed those illustrations to be shown larger and with greater detail.
Special spaces were used to align numbers in tables. Devices that do not support those spaces may display squares, question marks, or other symbols.
“Büsun” is a consistent misspelling for “Büsum”.
In the original Table of Contents, the entries for “The Kalkgrundet” and “The Svinbādan” were printed in the wrong sequence; corrected here.
Page 22: “a wide birth” was printed that way; should be “berth”.
Page 85: According to Wikipedia, the Bishop lighthouse was completed in 1858, not 1878.
Page 233: “Ly-ce-moon” likely is a misprint for “Ly-ee-moon”.
