The Little Book of Darts
No Customer Reviews
This book is a fascinating and entertaining mixture of the history and characters of the darts world. It features player profiles, trivia--including players' walk-on music, quickest matches, longest matches, 9-dart finishes, the most loved and hated players, and celebrity fans, as well as a treasure trove of statistical information. As such, all the tension, glory, complexity, and irony of the "art of the arras" is portrayed. Funny, interesting, and perplexing, the reader will smile, reminisce, laugh, and occasionally experience bewilderment as the spirit of the oche is brought to life. The wit and skill of players is mixed with expressions of frustration, pain, confusion, and anguish. Fighters, moaners, clowns, and philosophers rub shoulders between the pages, creating an atmosphere that anyone who has either watched or played the game will recognize. With this book, Brian Belton hits the bullseye of a simple passion that has enjoyed a massive resurgence of popularity in recent years.
