@@ -3,3 +3,27 @@ This is a Common Lisp implementation of the Reversi game.
 The web site for this package is http://reversi.b9.com which has
 documentation for this package.
 
+Reversi is based on the Othello(tm) game presented in Peter Norvig's
+book "Paradigms of Artificial Intelligence Programming", chapter 18.
+I highly suggest this book in general. If you wish to take full
+advantage of this package, you should read the chapter referenced.
+
+Quickstart
+==========
+
+First, you need to download and load ASDF -- the system definition loader.
+It's home page is http://www.cliki.net/asdf. After downloading asdf.lisp, load it in your Lisp environment:
+  (load "asdf.lisp")
+
+Next, you need to load the Reversi ASDF definition file:
+  (load "reversi.asd")
+
+Next, load the Reversi program itself using ASDF:
+  (asdf:operate 'asdf:load-op 'reversi)
+
+If you are using AllegroCL, Lispworks, CMUCL, or SBCL with CLIM, you
+can play Reversi with a graphical user interface using the command:
+   (reversi:clim-reversi)
+
+Otherwise, you can play in a text mode, such as:
+   (reversi:reversi #'reversi:human (reversi:iago 1))
