Sinopsis
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1851 edition. Excerpt: ... thus, QJ7, or thus, CH; and not unfrequently imperfect, thus Qlf, or thus WP, evidently owing to the writer not being at pains to complete it by the connecting stroke: a carelessness incident not uncommonly to frequency of repetition.
