Normal is dragging the king two square to the side you're castling on or click move to the destination square. Legacy also allows dragging the king to the rook to castle (this still works in 960 in Normal as well I believe)

Actually, dragging the king to the rook works in both. Legacy mode castling also works when clicking the king and then clicking the rook

I recently read this book. Overall, it was very good, but Chapter 25 was difficult for me. Could someone please explain it to me?

Normal casting needs you to move the king right next to your rook Legacy casting needs you to move your king next to your rook or on the rook
