Hammersong's Legacy: Table of Contents...

Good Morning, All:

As I near completion on the text of Hammersong's Legacy, a campaign setting for Swords & Wizardry, I felt it was time to provide a sample of the extent of the content to be found within the book. What follows are the major headings from the Table of Contents. There may be a few more added, particularly under the Encounters section, but that's only if the muse strike during these final days. After that, I will edit the completed work and then put it into layout. Please let me know if you like what you see, or if you have any questions or concerns.
