Excerpt from Billiards Expounded to All Degrees of Amateur Players, Vol. 1: The Elementary Side of Billiard-Playing Expounded may meet with a similar fate. Though, whether or no, I take to myself the idea that up to date it is the most serious and genuine attempt to show the theory and practice of the Billiard art in book form. It was my good fortune to secure as a collaborator Mr. S. A. Mussabini, a well-known writer on the game of Billiards. He has acted as a sort Of Boswell to me; for all that is recorded in Billiards Expounded comes from his pen as a condensation and lucid arrange ment of the precepts and principles I have from time to time put before him. How well he has performed his task the reader can now judge. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Not illustrated. 1904 edition. Excerpt: ...provides. The "swerving" or "curving" stroke is a very valuable one, apart from its usefulness in enabling a player to overcome awkward positions. It gives so much latitude to the player to make a delicate stroke, whereby the object-ball is barely moved, as in those deft touches when the cue-ball and object-ball are close together near a pocket. In such a case--as all players, of course, know--a slight contact of the balls opens up or retains the object-ball in position to resume upon the most simple of losing hazards. But the ordinary amateur player, so far as my experience goes, has no conception that this can be accomplished by any other stroke than a plain-ball. Take, for example, the positions I show on Fig. 57 by the two middle pockets. Here, in the ordinary way, are two nasty delicate screw shots--that Fig. 57.--"Swerving-ball" cannon, using the "spider-rest," and two gentle "swerving-ball" losing hazards, leaving the object-ball in position. is, judged in the light of what they would appear to the average amateur. Played as such, they would require much good handling to ensure a favourable after-position of the object-ball; the more so, as in both cases the latter will have a fairly long distance to travel to work around to a desired location. But, to obviate such a needless expenditure of power, there is the "swerving" or "curving" stroke ready at hand. In both the positions illustrated it is of the greatest utility. The "swerving" of the cue-ball permits of the stroke being made most delicately, with little beyond the needed disturbance of the object-ball. Do not forget, however, to elevate the butt-end of the cue so as to cause the point to...
