Notes: |
This is a diagram of a chess-board, the sort one finds printed in newspapers as puzzles, with a summary of the “game” that also serves as a table of contents for the book. I will add the table of contents when more of the book is ready; I noticed today that the Project gutenberg edition lacks the illustrations, the Dramatis personæ and this page altogether! |
