Where it came from
Originally published by Follett in 1969, this title was later reprinted by Dover Publications in 1994 as part of their commitment to preserving classic instructional texts. Sid Sackson, a legendary figure in board game design, compiled this work to document the rules and cultural origins of diverse card games, aiming to bridge the gap between casual play and the scholarly history of tabletop gaming.
Sackson was renowned for his meticulous research and analytical approach to game mechanics. In this volume, he sought to provide clear, accessible instructions for a global array of games that were often difficult to research. The book was well-received by hobbyists and historians alike, serving as a reliable reference that helped formalize the study of traditional card games during a period when the modern hobby game industry was still in its infancy.
