'Tennis (for) anyone: Mr. Lardner's clear, precise instructions and explicit diagrams and drawings explain, even to the least adept visualizer, all the fundamentals of that gentlemanly sport. The various grips and strokes, as well as some more advanced strokes like the spin (how to send and receive them), allowance for court surfaces, playing doubles, and strategy are included in the introduction to technique; how to practice, how to get into condition (exercise), how to prepare for a match, and the conventions of courtesy are all delineated with fitting gravity. Mainly a manual, it achieves communication almost as immediate as an instructor demonstrating a swing. Lucid and comprehensive.'
