Bar Pool: Matters of Shrewd Gamesmanship

Bar Pool is a book about gamesmanship, and its goal is to survey the many comical situations and fascinating subtleties that arise from playing pool in dingy dive bars. It focuses on the psychological tactics that are so successful in achieving victory within that dark arena, while hinting at their broader applications to everyday life. It aims to be a humorous and informative resource, suitable for both drunkards and sharp-shooters alike.
