Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
Excerpt from The Works of Lord Byron, Vol. 5 of 6 The conspiracy of the Doge Marino Faliero is one of the most remarkable events in the annals of the most singular gdver'mfie/nt, city, and people of modern hi story. It occurred in the year 1355. Every thing about Venice is, or was, extraordinary - her aspect is like a dream, and her history is like a romance.
