Various revisions of printed book presentation.
1. Purple background on the front and and new blank back pages.
2. UK English for hyphenation and date presentation.
3. Dedication and 'About Havoc' section.
4. Footer just page number in centre of page.
5. Revised copyright discussion.
6. Since it's a book, make content, intro and first lines to chapters.
And prompt individual tunes to sections.
7. Omit 'Tunes' chapter heading. It doesn't look good in A5.
