| COVER: |
Beginning Backgammon is a new and pleasurable method of learning this mewly popular ancient game by playing against a master Tim Holland—who has won the World's Championship of Backgammon three consecutive times and the International Championship of Backgammon twice. Play the five games in this book, move by move, and you will be well on the road to playing a good game of backgammon—a game you will improve and refine each time you play. Tim Holland is a marvelous teacher; he understands that a novice must enjoy a game to learn it well, and he has incorporated this principle into his book. Beginning Backgammon won't turn a beginner into an instant champion, but Tim Holland does guarantee to start you right, learning by playing. World's Champion Holland is your opponent in each of the five games in Beginning Backgammon, which is illustrated each step of the way. Beginning Backgammon includes the rules of the game and a glossary of backgammon terms. |
