Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a guide to the exciting world of table tennis, a game that swept through England and is just beginning to catch on in America. The author captures the excitement of the game, describing its unique features and comparing it to its ancestor, lawn tennis. The book delves into the nuances of the game, including the different types of strokes, techniques like serving and half-volleying, and the strategies involved in placing shots. It explores the controversy surrounding the best type of racquet, advocating for the wooden racquet over the then-popular vellum or gut options. The author also offers an engaging glimpse into the social scene of the time, describing the enthusiasm for the game in England, even among prominent figures in business and finance. The book goes beyond simple instructions, providing a fascinating commentary on the cultural impact of table tennis, highlighting its appeal across social classes and its role in bridging divides.
