Misc. Notes Blank pages between tunings removed, hence some seemingly missing pages.
  • Note from Joelle Morton: This copy is very clearly a private scan of the Peacock Press, 2003 publication, easily identifiable by the many annotations, edits and changes (made without comment) by the editor Paul Furnas. Despite its widespread dissemination (including a pirated version now printed and offered for sale by Atelier Philidor) the Peacock Press publication is not public domain, nor is the original manuscript, held by Manchester Public Library*
