The Art of Lawn Tennis is a classic instructional book written by William T. Tilden, one of the greatest tennis players of all time. First published in 1921, the book is a comprehensive guide to the sport of tennis, covering everything from the basics of grip and footwork to advanced strategies for winning matches. The book is divided into three parts: The Fundamentals of Tennis, The Strokes of Tennis, and Match Play and Tactics. In the first part, Tilden explains the basic principles of tennis, including the rules of the game, equipment, and court dimensions. The second part covers the different strokes used in tennis, including forehands, backhands, serves, and volleys, and provides detailed instructions on how to execute each stroke correctly. The final part of the book focuses on match play and tactics, including how to read your opponent's game, how to develop a winning strategy, and how to handle pressure situations. Throughout the book, Tilden shares his own experiences and insights from his illustrious career, making it an invaluable resource for tennis players of all levels. The Art of Lawn Tennis is a timeless classic that continues to be a must-read for anyone who wants to improve their game and learn from one of the greatest players in tennis history.Always dress in tennis clothes when engaging in tennis. White is the established colour. Soft shirt, white flannel trousers, heavy white socks, and rubber-soled shoes form the accepted dress for tennis. Do not appear on the courts in dark clothes, as they are apt to be heavy and hinder your speed of movement, and also they are a violation of the unwritten ethics of the game.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
