I just read several very useful responses to this thread which appeared in my mailbox. If
you meant to post to the list, I'll post 'em.

The gist was that the material comes from Silver's "Paradoxes.." and also from Aylward's
"English Masters of Defense.." I took Silver's contribution for granted, and, while the
source for the rest may have been Aylward's 1956 work, I seem to remember what I'd read
being somewhat more current (mid 70s or 80s) but I could well be wrong.

In the meantime, the hunt continues!
