Carefully selecting the best articles from our collection of classic magazines we have compiled a series of informative publications on the subject of sport. The titles in this range include 'Correct Technique for the Great Sport of Golf,' 'The Great Sport of Hockey,' 'The Gentleman's Sport of Hunting,' and many more. Each publication has been professionally curated and includes all details on the original source material. This particular instalment, 'The Great Game of Tennis', contains information on the history and techniques of tennis. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions.
