Daly’s Billiard Book
This volume is devoted to the extension among amateurs of a better understanding of the theory and practice of “position play” in “ball-to-ball ” billiards. In particular, it aims to make clearer and of practical value the methods of modern experts in “ system ” play. It considers shots in their serial relation rather than as individual strokes, and lays stress not so much on the shots to GET the balls together as the shots to KEEP them together.
It is dedicated to the amateur billiard players of America; and should it attain, even in small degree, the objects intended, it will be sufficient recompense for the years of study and work involved in its preparation
