I have had a chance to examine the new books, The Princess Bride in particular____ On the back cover of this book, there was this sleeve, I wondered about what it was for at first, perhaps a bookmark? I would do fine for one. What it does do wonderfully is, it contains the first part of the book nicely which allows you to find the beginning of the story. Not unlike Ivanhoe which did not have this particular luxury. The choice there is to count or wade through the notorious 50 pages before you can find the real beginning of the adventure of Ivanhoe. The beginning is worth it in the end as it sets you up for the history behind the story. This is somewhat the author is doing in The Princess Bride. Once past the beginning of both books, they are a wonderful adventure. It does interest me that these books were set up this way. The assumption is something in those bits of the books there has to be worthwhile.
