Summary: Volume 3 is the LONG LOST work of Owen Taylor that caps off his study on Point and Figure that he started when working with Victor de Villiers on the original 2 volumes they co-wrote in 1933 and revised in 1934. This 151 page work was published solo by Owen Taylor in 1939 and augmented in 1940 and 1941. To our knowledge, this is the first time Volume 3 has been published publicly since Taylor released it in 1941.
