Skills, Drills & Strategies for Bowling (The Teach, Coach, Play Series) Review

Skills, Drills and Strategies for Bowling (The Teach, Coach, Play Series)
Average Reviews:

This book is very very basic. I'm surprised at Jose the bowlers' review. He could only have been talking about conventional vs fingertip drilling as this book does not address the layout and drilling of a bowling ball at all. It is scorekeeping and the pin numbers and basic information about lanes and four steps. For a very raw beginner or teaching a class of beginners, it would work.

The Man in the Bowler Hat: His History and Iconography Review

The Man in the Bowler Hat: His History and Iconography
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Professor Robinson uses the bowler hat (or Derby) as the medium in understanding modernism and the modern world. Introduced in 1950 (see MR LOCK OF ST. JAMES STREET below) the hat had rather significant meaning to the emerging middle class. If Wilcox (THE MODE IN HATS AND HEADDRESS) had it right when she wrote "head attire in both sexes have from prehistoric times served to establish the individual's rank or position in society, to impress the lowly and to challenge the enemy" then Robinson's thesis of the bowler hat's profound meanings may have validity in understanding modern Western man. He furthermore explores the hat's resonance in art and literature.

By following the fortunes of a single item of fashion--the bowler or derby hat--Robinson unfolds a cultural history of modernism and modern life. In this innovative book, Robinson pursues the bowler's intriguing history through an illustrated tour of art, literature, fashion, politics, and film up to the present day. 52 illustrations.

Black and White Chic Mod Circle Bowler Satchel Hobo Handbag Review

Black and White Chic Mod Circle Bowler Satchel Hobo Handbag
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I love this purse. The white part is shiny pleather, and the black circles are like velvet. It zips at the top before it opens like a pac-man mouth ">". There's not a ton of room at the top- which is obvious from the pictures- but I'm not planning on packing with it either- so it's fine for the normal wallet, keys, phone, glasses. It's as stylish as it looks, no surprises.

Bowling 300: Top Pros Share Their Secrets to Rolling the Perfect Game Review

Book is interesting and has few typos. A lot of nice anecdotes, personal information about the players, practice techniques etc.
However, complicated releases employed by pro's are described in words without pictures. Frankly it is difficult to picture exactly what these guys are doing with their releases etc. Definitely needs more pictures, diagrams, etc.
