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.
