And besides natural aging (yellowing of pages, faded cover) the book arrived in perfect condition. My book (Tennis for Dummies) arrived shortly after placing the order-no long wait here.
Patrick is a walking tennis encylopedia. Now that he's doing the Davis Cup our whole family misses him so much on the matches on television. Patrick McEnroe is our family's favorite tennis commentator. You can literally become a better player just by listening to his comments.
For more advanced players, its still great for refreshing basic details and rules, learning tennis-related exercise routines, etc. Lots of fun for anyone with any interest in Tennis. This is the first book I bought about Tennis when I got into the sport over a year ago. McEnroe's sense of humor is great and it makes the otherwise dull task of describing in writing a dynamic game much more intereseting. Like most of the "Dummies" books, sometimes you have to flip around sequentially for information, but thats not a big deal in the end. Its not fancy with a lot of glossy photos of pro players, BUT it is one of the most useful and fun to read Tennis books I have found. If you are an absolute beginner, its a fun, interesting and non-scary introduction to the game.
Thanks. If you do not have this book yet, just buy it and will be happpy that you did. Tennis for Dummies is a great book for all tennis players. I found a lot about tennis that I was looking for.
this is the only book i needed to buy because it has everything in it. i especaially like the cheat sheet. for someone who has never tried to play tennis before, likes to watch it on tv, is interested to play on their school team, or maybe sommeone getting back into the game, this book is really helpful in learning all about playing the game of tennis. a great refrence on everything tennis.
