Excellent beginners dart book

I own several books on the game of darts, and this is the best one. It is chock full of humorous comments, informative sidebars, charts, figures, hand drawings, and examples. The rules for the games were easy to follow and it lists 23 of them including Cricket. The tips on how to play well, and practice effectively were good. It included several practice routines in addition to the games. And most welcome were the frequent charts showing how an average, expert or pro darter would perform on the various games or feats.I read the book cover to cover and thoroughly enjoyed the author's writing style and frequent application of humor.NOTE: The review that blasts the 1977 version of the book should be ignored, as the the 1986 update to the book addressed all the complaints. Cricket is listed, the 7' 9 1/4" throwing distance is clearly listed, etc.

An excellent book for beginners

For the person just learning about darts, this is an ideal book. There are several variations of dart games listed here, and many of them rely more on luck than skill. Therefore, for people not entirely serious about dart playing, they will find many of these games more interesting and fun than the more traditional games.This book is perfect for the beginner, but probably won't be of much value to serious dart player.
