Jamie, Unfortunately I can't find any of my old chess books but I put chess notation into google and found several sites that might be helpful to you, if you need more than the book you have gives you, but I think what's in book will be clear. Before my mini stroke I kept a list of who requested what books, and I notified the person when his/her request was added to the collection. I found that old list and the person who requested the chess books.'ll email him and ask if he'll proofread any chess books you scan, Jamie. I validated a mystery--I can't remember the name of it--that had as a clue a chess game and I had to put the board into words. Maybe whoever scanned it will remember the book and you can take a look.
