Exceptional Guide

When my nephew asked me to join him at Lacrosse, I thought he'd gone cult on me. Once defined I bought this book. Not only is it pleasing to peruse through, the text informs one gracefully and to the point. Now I know what all his fuss is about regarding this action-packed sport.

Lacrosse: The Player's Handbook

Subject: seen at Grant Park on a placard... My friend's son started playing lacrosse so I bought him this book. I actually read part of it before I gave it to him and thought it was incredibly well-done. Really clear instructions and a terrific section about the women's game. Highly recommended.
