Product Info Reviews

Description:

This handy little compendium outlines the rules for more than 130 games, puzzles, and pastimes that can be enjoyed alone or with a partner. Although the book contains no original material, it's a useful volume for anyone interested in the "classics." Chess, backgammon, reversi, and go are all given their due, as are hangman, jacks, and snakes and ladders. Even activities that aren't strictly "games" are covered, with sections on drawing, juggling, and card tricks. The small size makes it perfect for social events and vacations; or you could just set it aside until your next polite disagreement over whether one is required to jump an opponent's checker if able. --Matthew Baldwin
