Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Practical Hand-Book of Games
I cannot emphasize too strongly the value of games in developing a moral sense in the broadest meaning of the word, and many of the games printed here have been chosen because they are especially fitted for that purpose. Special note of that fact is made in connection with the individual games so chosen.
Grateful acknowledgment is made to Dr. Henry van Dyke for permission to use the Four Rules for a Good Sportsman.
