| Notes: |
The book is a word-for-word reprint of Hoyle's Card Games, Card.1 (1824), without the "Guide to the Turf" but with the added games in the final gathering:
Specuatlion, Lottery, Loto, Boston, and Hazard. None of the added games appear in
the table of contents, and only Hazard appears on the title page. |
