Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 1st Edition. A Glossary And The Authorized Rules Of Backgammon For 1931 MABARDI, Georges [158] pp. Horace Liveright 1931 First Edition 7" x 5 1/4" The Editors of Vanity Fair were among the first to give Backgammon editorial attention by publishing papers by the best writers on the game. It soon developed, however, that while many of these articles had been excellent, they could not cover the entire strategy of this popular game, nor could they prevent players from falling into various misapprehensions, errors and confusions which were the inevitable result of the naturally limited scope of monthly articles. Therefore, Vanity Fair determined to publish an authoritative volume on Backgammon which would give the reader a sound and clear idea of its strategy. Georges Mabardi, the author of this book, is acknowledged by both the most experienced players and authorities to be one of the finest exponents of the game, and one of the most successful players, in America today. It might be even said that he inherited his skill, for he is an Egyptian by birth and in Egypt Backgammon has been played for thirty centuries. It is a national diversion there now. Mabardi himself has played it, studied it and taught it since he was a child. Surely of all the Backgammon authorities, none is more fit to expound the sadly neglected, fundamental and traditional principles of the game. The beginner will save himself much bitter experience by a careful application of the theories contained in this book. The advanced player will, by pondering Mr. Mabardi s theories and strategies, find ways to increase his pleasure in it and if he prefers to play Backgammon for profit rather than for pleasure a means of increasing his winnings. The Editors of Vanity Fair.
