England and took up croquet. At some point he realized that though quite a bit of literature existed about the game. many items are very scarce and ill-documented.

Most are in English but a few in other European and Asian languages. For each he includes the formula. technical notes. contents. binding. copy seen. fingerprint. and notes. He indexes titles. authors and other contributors. and publishers and printers; a subject index would be redundant. Fine cloth copy in an equally fine dw. Particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight. bright. clean and especially sharp-cornered. Literally as new.; 8vo 8' - 9' tall; 508 pages; Description: xx. 508 p. ; 25 cm. Includes indexes.
