Any grey shading is where the spine of the book did not lie flat against the scanner.   The original paper size is approx. 21cm by 27.5cm (8.5in by 10.8in), the printed area approx. 15cm (6in) wide.   Depending on your screen size you may find the clarity of the picture has deteriorated as it has been enlarged.




Pages 202 - 205.   The following text was taken from 4 pages of the book.   In order to read it more easily, the pages have been cut and pasted together to keep the text separate from the notes.   However, this does mean they appear rather untidy in places.

The individual crests are less than three centimetres wide, so the quality may appear distorted, depending on the size of the screen you are viewing them on.
