The Literature of Checkers; Embracing All the Books, Pamphlets, and Magazines on the Game of English Draughts, Commonly Known As Checkers by William Timothy Call Pdf

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1908 edition. Excerpt: ... THE LITERATURE OF CHECKERS. I W1ll1am Payne. An Introduction to the Game of Draughts. London, 1756. Last page number, 67.. Present value, $15. This is the first work on the game of checkers printed in the English language. It contains fifty games, fourteen critical situations, and twenty-four stroke problems.
