  "The bookmarks/Table of Contents I use in my ebook reader, for this (since the
  one in the book doesn't refer to all the games in the book):
  
  3: Regular Rook: 3-6 players
  6: rook for 2
  8: Tennessee rook for 2
  10: over the top rook for 2
  12: rook for 3
  13: partnership rook (4-6 players)
  14: dixie rook (like regular rook, partnership, 4-6 plyrs, variations)
  17: for 6 players
  17: Progressive parties (ie, multiple tables, go up/down w/ win/loss?)
  18: Tuxedo: for all the family.  2-6 players. Ages: if can add #s (or have a
  helper?) so 7 or 10+? Deanne thot c.b. fun like skipbo, which says ages 7+.
  21: I doubt it: for children (bluffing game): D very uncomfortable--teaches
  lying, gives practice at deception, as if ~"sometimes ok".  age 8+? but none.
  22: panjandrum, most ages, 3-5 players. Seems like ~group solitaire, card
  sorting.  Age: 6-7+ to understand rules? Young enuf to not find boring? Play
  all (unseen in adv) cards to the build&delay piles, until all gone.
  "Panjandrum" and minor penalty if mistake noticed.
  25: donkey: for little children (age 5-8 guess??).  Deal all. Move 1 card face
  down to left.  First w 4 of a # quietly folds hands.  Last to mimic that runs
  aloud around table (saying "donkeys don't watch" or "I'm a donkey" or such?).  Age: enuf to hold/sort cards? D thot fun if all run but
  first one; if too few ppl, multi winners likely?
  26: golden 10: 3-7 players; w 4 can do partners.  Ages u+ (ie, skipbo-like)?
  Looks easy/fun.
  27: match: for young children (age 2+? ~=candyland hard? #s or colors). Deal
  all; unseen questions card from top leads, next follows w 1, match takes trick
  under hand.  Empty=out. When 2 left, 5 more tricks, most cards wins. D says
  like war/battle, but allows more ppl. Adults have played war, no?
  28: old rook solitaire
  30: new rook solitaire
  32: clock pastime.

• The pdf format seemed easiest to read, for the manual at archive.org.
• Can play many other games with minor adaptations: many from face cards etc., w/ minor/no adaptations(?), but avoids some negative face card associations/habits.
• See wikipedia re "card games" for more rules, ideas of games, etc.
