Summary: "The Square of Sevens: An Authoritative Method of Cartomancy with a Prefatory…" by E. Irenaeus Stevenson is a manual on the art of cartomancy, or fortune-telling using cards, written in the late 19th century. The book outlines a specific method called the "Square of Sevens," which utilizes a unique card arrangement and interpretation system.
