    Great little sourcebook with history and variations on many themes.

    Very poor copy, practically unreadable. This almost looks like a bad photocopy of a print book, not a specifically made ebook. The text cannot be enlarged, it looks dark but at the same time too faint to read or perhaps it is that the letters are not sharp, I'm not sure which. Other parts of the text appear on top of other parts. As such this book could have been brilliant but as it was unreadable I won't know...
