Synopsis

All about Pinball contains the most comprehensive instructions and diagrams ever printed on the skills, techniques, and strategies of the sport of pinball. It explains 'hudging', 'stop shot' or 'deflect pass' as well as the difference between a 'kicking rubber' and a 'stretched rebound'? The reader also learns about organized pinball tournaments and how to participate in them.

In addition, the authors provide a fascinating and detailed history of pinball including its legal background, and a unique writing approach correlates the events of the world with the development in the pinball industry, not just telling you what happened, but how it happened and why. Unusual color and black and white photographs highlight the text, including scenes from Tommy featuring the Who, and a rare collection of classic machines.
