Synopsis
Excerpt from Vocabulary of Checkers: A Dictionary of Words, Terms and Phrases Used in the Game Called Checkers, or English Draughts The words, terms, and phrases explained in these pages were obtained chiey from the 227 separate works on the game of checkers that have been printed in English in the period of a little more than a century and a half, extending from 1756 to the present time. Each magazine, regardless of the number of volumes issued, is here counted as one work. The sources of information are thus more extensive than the mere mention of 227 works would indicate. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in our edition. We do, however, repair the vast majority of imperfections successfully; any imperfections that remain are intentionally left to preserve the state of such historical works., Excerpt from Vocabulary of Checkers: A Dictionary of Words, Terms and Phrases Used in the Game Called Checkers, or English Draughts The words, terms, and phrases explained in these pages were obtained chiefly from the 227 separate works on the game of checkers that have been printed in English in the period of a little more than a century and a half, extending from 1756 to the present time. Each magazine, regardless of the number of volumes issued, is here counted as one work. The sources of information are thus more extensive than the mere mention of 227 works would indicate. Another storehouse, not included in any way in this count, is the great mass of printed matter on the game found in the checker columns of newspapers. An important additional supply department is the checker chatter of the players themselves. No term of interest that the writer could find, or get any one to find for him, has been omitted. The guiding idea in accepting or rejecting a term was this: Does it refer to something a student of the pastime anywhere many have occasion to use or look up?

    The first item was not right. The seller made it right. New item received in great condition. Thank you for the great communication and customer service. It looked exactly like the description and I'm pleased with the value of it. Thanks for producing a quality product that is almost impossible to find now. Most of all, thanks for making it right when it was wrong.
