This looks quite succinct to me.

Some additions. Looks like I can't use colours, so I'll just put your notes in bold (to show where it fits in on the timeline).

1888
Clive is born.
Birthday: Ch. 32: “Clive had turned towards women soon after he reached the age of twenty-four.” this’ll make it about mid-spring or so. I think this makes Clive’s year of birth fairly certain.

October-December 1909
...
- Maurice and Chapman have lunch with the Dean and meet Risley (a senior).
The Dean's name is Cornwallis

...snip...

Summer of 1910

If you have the notes, I think it would be great to include references to the actual chapter where you can find the info - would be nice to be able to refer back to.

Yes, that would be the intelligent thing to do.

*G* - well, if you have them... - if not, it's not so hard to search the book :)

Okay, I think this just about covers it. I hope. Unless you or anyone else has something to add and/or correct.

Chapter 41 and 42 threw me off a bit. Maurice receives a letter from Alec just before going to (what I assume is) his final session with Mr Lasker Jones. It asks him to come to the boathouse "tomorrow night" or the night after. Then Maurice leaves the doctor's office and goes home where he finds a second letter from Alec which is a bit threatening and asks to meet up with Maurice in London on Tuesday ( ... )
