TRANSCRIBER'S NOTES
In the plain text version words in Italics are denoted by _underscores_and text in bold like =this=.
In the text the author uses the word "flaunt" in this sentence:
And these maxims are not merely empty phrases, for in the novel the politicianswho flaunt them fail.
Based on the context it is believed that the correct word should be "flout"
.A number of words in this book have both hyphenated and non-hyphenatedvariants. For the words with both variants present the one more usedhas been kept.
Obvious punctuation and other printing errors have been corrected.
