ACTUAL PROBLEM IDENTIFIED!
Hi folks. I think I've found where the issue is. It appears that Sigil adds or changes formatting when I add a Chapter Break to the document. The chapter preceding the break changes to left alignment, but the chapter immediately following the break stays entirely with the original formatting that had been specified.

Can anyone now tell em how to override that Chapter Break function changing the formatting?

In finding this problem, I've made a gzillion step-by-step changes to the book, each step re-loading onto the iPad to check its appearance/rendering. When I finally returned to original text straight out of the IDCS5 file (using IDCS5's "Exported for ePub" function), imported it into Sigil and did NOTHING to it, it rendered fine, juts without any chapter breaks. And that's where the problems were starting for me - adding the chapter breaks.

Any help much appreciated.
Thank you for all the guidance you've provided thus far.
