[edit] Summary

A map of the Knight's Tour as performed by the Turk. Mapping information from The Turk by Tom Standage, created using User:Interiot's Toolserver hack of en.User:Ilmari Karonen's perl script.

This is my own creation using the map in the book. The tour itself is not and cannot be copyrighted as it is a chess puzzle, and this specific puzzle, run by the Turk, was done in the 1700s, and all operators up to the 1880s are long since dead.

The pattern is as follows:

d4 f5 d6 e8 c7 a8 b6 a4 b2 d1 f2 h1 g3 h5 g7 e6 f8 d7 b8 a6 b4 a2 c1 e2 g1 h3 f4 d3 c5 e4 c3 d5 e3 c4 e5 c6 d8 b7 a5 b3 a1 c2 e1 g2 h4 g6 h8 f7 h6 g4 h2 f1 d2 b1 a3 b5 a7 c8 e7 g8 f6 h7 g5 f3 d4
