Review from The Philidorian: ....To the spectacled dowager, or the gouty old bachelor, -to miss near her teens, or master near his pinafore. -How could there be devised a better game? It teaches the child arithmetic, by a railroad process; and soothes the aches of age by its gentle exercise of the brain. Pasquin's Treatise, long out of print, was the best cribbage manual ever published; and in the little volume before us Mr. Walker has appended a good deal of interesting matter to a reproduction of the original. We may take another opportunity to draw upon this work for extracts.

A review from The Philidorian: As long as sea-coal fires and Welsh-rabbits maintain their ground in merry England, so long will the venerable science of Cribbage hold its own. To the spectacled dowager, or the gouty old bachelor,-to miss near her teens, or master near his pinafore. -How could there be devised a better game? It teaches the child arithmetic, by a railroad process; and soothes the aches of age by its gentle exercise of the brain. Pasquin's Treatise, long out of print, was the best cribbage manual ever published; and in the little volume before us Mr. Walker has appended a good deal of interesting matter to a reproduction of the original. We may take another opportunity to draw upon this work for extracts. At p. 41, we turned up an error, which the publishers will thank us for pointing out, in order to its being corrected in a second edition. The author's words are, "A sequence of a six, seven, and eight, combined with a pair of aces, inclusive of a four card flush, yield thirteen points," &c. Now the fact is, these cards with the flush, as indicated, count for seventeen, although at first view we grant the computation is not obvious. A six, seven, and eight, with a pair of aces, unflushed, form of themselves the baker's dozen; and this particular presentment of the cards is called, in some counties, the "ragged thirteen." * * * * * From the beginning of the Author's PREFACE: As a game of cards for two persons only, Cribbage is universally popular, and both Piquet and Ecarté must give place to its pretensions. There exists, indeed, no similar species of amusement, in which the rival powers of chance and skill are so happily blended; - and, while the influence of fortune is perpetually recognized as a source of pleasing excitement, there remains sufficient room for the exercise of the intellectual faculties, to insure their final attainment of success. In Cribbage, as in other games, the ignorant go on, playing at random, and trusting solely to what they term "their luck;" - while those who are better informed, do not disdain to acquire the art of guiding that "luck" towards their own side of the board. During the run of a few consecutive games, skill may be compelled to yield to the power of adverse cards; but in a longer series of play, its influence will most certainly predominate.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1866 edition. Excerpt: ...But mark the difference of a single hole, and never again say, "Oh! its only one hole!" The pegs being even, at sixty holes each, is 2 to 1, or even more, in favor of the dealer. In every stage of the game, until you come within the last twenty holes, if the non-dealer ia three points ahead, it ia even betting; but when you gat nearer towards the close, a point cr two makes a material difference. For example, suppose the dealer wants twenty holes of game, and the non-dealer, seventeen, --in thi3 case the dealer ha3 nearly 5 to 4 the worst of it; for tho non-dealer being so nearly at home for lib next deal, may break hi3 hand, in order to throw a powerful baulk into his adversary's crib; or may play his cards so as to prevent his opponent's scoring in play. The game becomes again equal, when the dealer wants fourteen, and the non-dealer nine points; and also when tho dealer requires eleven, and tho non-dealer but seven of the game. But when the dealer wants only three points of game, and his adversary, who of course has tho first show, wants four, the dealer has 5 to 4 the best of it, onaccount of the many chances he has of playing out; in addition to the more remote contingency of his adversary's not holding four points. Here, the dealer will observe, that it is his play not to hold a single point in hand, should he in so doing, detract from his best chance, which is to keep three small card3 for play, to have the greater probability of securing at least the end hole. It is in cases of delicacy like this, which frequently turn on the winning or losing of a single hole, that play tells most, and the importance of that single hole is made the more fully manifest. In all parts of the game, until within about fifteen holes of out, if...
