   I am reading the Emacs Lisp Manual from beginning and
   sequencially. Found reference to ‘alist’ in section 2.4.12 Hash Table
   Type without any previous explanation.

If you look up the term in the index, you will get the right result
for it.  "i alist RET" in the Info reader which goes the the overall
chapter on alists.
