Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. In the world of billiards, mental agility is as important as the ability to execute a clean shot. This book details the historical and strategic development of billiards as a sophisticated game of calculation, finesse, and athleticism. With the advent of the third and fourth ball in the early decades of the 19th century, billiards became less a game of brute force and more one of strategy and skill, mirroring the modern evolution of warfare. The author traces this evolution, discussing the contributions of key players and innovators whose innovations, such as the twist, draw, and massà , shifted gameplay strategy. He goes on to describe the meticulous artistry of shot selection, and a player's need to account for multiple variables such as ball and table geometry, the weight of cue and ball, and the array of potential angles of deflection. This book is a testament to the enduring appeal of a game that continues to challenge and fascinate.
