Backgammon in a Week

Robin Clay     1992     92pp
Hodder & Stoughton     ISBN:0340563893

This is a very basic book, which goes from outlining the rules of play through opening moves and various basic gameplans. These are given at about the same level as say Jacoby & Crawford or Bruce Becker's books. Essentially they teach you the rules and let you go out and play. Clay's book is no different. It has been around for several years, and has contact names for British backgammon organisations. For anyone who knows how to play, these may well be the most valuable bits of the book.

Kieran Barry, August 1997
