The Art of Badminton (Hardcover, illustrated edition)

Originally published in 1930. The author was All-England Singles Champion of that time. A fascinating look at the sport at that time, accompanied with advice that is still useful and practical today. Contents Include: The Racket and How To Hold It - Footwork and Poise - Stroke Production - The Smash - The Lob (Or Clear) - Drop-Shots - The Drive - Service - Return of Service - Feinting - Tactics (General Ideas) - Doubles (Side by Side Formation) - Doubles (Back and Front Formation) - Singles - Match Winning. With photographic illustrations. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Home Farm Books are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
