Bocce: A Sport for Everyone

Rating:
Summary: Cheesy to the max
Review: I have to agree with Reader from Houston. This is the cheesiest book I've ever seen in print. It could only have been self-published. Over 50 pages of illegibly-reproduced random clippings and home album photos. Interspersed are about 30 pages of useful information about how to build a court and rules for playing the game.

Review: No tree should have been cut down to print this. I wanted to know how to play bocce and how to build a court. This book did not satisfy my needs.

Summary: truly a sport for everyone
Review: Reading "A Sport for Everyone" brought back memories of warm Sunday afternoons at my grandparents. After a big family dinner, both adults and kids would go out to the back yard to play Bocce, Just enough exercise to help digest. I haven't played in years, so when we built a vacation house, I ordered this book in hopes of putting in a Bocce court of my own. The chapter on building courts was very helpful and clear. The rest of the book deals with equipment and rules, all very useful and upbeat. I'm now the proud owener of both the book and a truly fine court. This is a book written with the enthusiasm of a Bocce zealot. Even though the pulication is technically a bit primative,I hope it converts others over to a great "social" sport.
