Abstract
THIS treatise will be useful to the amateur billiard player who has a competent knowledge of mathematics, though not, perhaps, to the very accomplished player who may have attained to excellence by natural gifts of eye and hand, and by long practice without theory. Mr. Hemming had better state in his own words his views upon this question.
