As pocket billiards continues to make its way from smoky, disreputable haunts to upscale sports bars, the need for a reliable instructional text for recreational players increases. Here it is. Originally published in German, it's a profusely illustrated, full-color, reasonably priced introduction. The authors provide insight into equipment, grips, angles, rules, stances, bridges, and shots. They also cover banks and caroms, corner balls, and combination shots. With the explosion of interest in billiards, this could be a popular addition. Wes Lukowsky
