Excerpt from Handbook of Athletic Sports, Vol. 6: Practical Horsemanship and Riding for Ladies The object of this series, the different sections of which are appearing concurrently as separate volumes under the title all-england Series, is to give in concise form, by writers whose eminence in their respective branches enables them to speak with authority, a clear description of each game, with practical instructions and hints, such as will be helpful both to the beginner and the more advanced player. In all cases where there is an authorized and accessible code of laws they have been given. It is sometimes urged that games must be learnt by practice, and not from books but while it may be admitted that theory without practice is of no use, it is equally true that practice, without proper guidance, is often worse than useless. Many a young player wastes countless hours in vain efforts to surmount some difficulty or attain some power, when a hint from one who has already gone through the same experiences might have put him on the right path at once, and averted the acquisition of a bad habit which it is afterwards impossible to overcome.
