A cleverly designed package that contains a miniature pool table, along with instructions for more than 40 pool and billiards games. The book provides an introduction to the history and basics of the game, and then details how each of the 40 games and variations-from Eight Ball to Italian Skittle-are played. It's also got fun facts about the game and it's famous players. Modeled on a real pool table, the table comes with tiny cues, pool balls, and a rack-it even collects the balls you've shot into a drawer below, making set up for your next game even easier. It's all here in one package: just pick your game, rack up the balls, and get playing!
