Subtitle: "An Illustrated History of the Sport"
After many delays in publication, and a wait of more than 6 months after I ordered it, this epic work finally arrived at my doorstep yesterday afternoon.
Because billiards has been around for several hundred years, there is a good bit of billiards history, therefore this is a really big book: 600+ pages and 10" x 13". Huge sucker! And a zillion photos and illustrations. It will keep me busy for a long time.
This new 3rd edition just started shipping a few days ago. The 2nd edition was sold out years ago and a bidding war on those old copies more than doubled the cover price, if you could find one. I never did get one of those previous editions, so I'm feeling good about spending some serious reading time with this one.
