Masters of the Baize: Cue Legends, Bad Boys and Forgotten Men in Search of Snooker's Ultimate Prize
The top snooker players in the world compete for several trophies every year, but one carries more prestige than all the others put together—the World Championship. Meticulously researched and including exclusive interview material with Steve Davis, Stephen Hendry, and 2005 world champion Shaun Murphy, among others, Masters of the Baize is a comprehensive guide to the men who have lifted the greatest prize in snooker. From the legendary Joe Davis, the first champion in 1927, to modern-day masters like Mark Williams, all the sport's world champions are put under the microscope, while the colorful careers of forgotten figures such as Walter Donaldson and John Pulman and rogue heroes like Alex Higgins and Ronnie O'Sullivan are brought vividly to life.

The Little Book of Snooker
Through informative snippets and bite-size facts, as well as quotes and anecdotes from players, pundits, and fans alike, one of the world's most popular sports is revealed here in all its pocket-rattling glory

 

Who has the highest break? When were red balls first introduced? What do Marie Antoinette and Mary Queen of Scots have in common (aside from being unable to keep their heads)? From the lawn games of the 17th-century elite to glittering waistcoats and lush green baize at the Crucible, this is wonderful collection of stories about the most hilarious and often embarrassing scenes that have taken place in the green rooms, hotel rooms, and at parties attended by the biggest legends in snooker. These stories, many never before published, have been told by the stars themselves. The book also lists the profiles of the contributing players and their career achievements and includes the winners and the runners-up of the most important tournaments in the snooker year, as well as a host of fascinating facts, stats, quotes, and trivia relating to the green baize.

Frame of Mind: The Autobiography of the World Snooker Champion
When Graeme Dott won the World Snooker Championship in 2006 it should have been the highlight of his career. It was what he had worked for all his life, but Alex Lambie, his mentor and father-in-law, had cancer and only had months to live. Alex died at the end of 2006 and, incredibly, Dott's snooker went from strength to strength. Away from the table, his life was falling apart. He didn't know it, but he was suffering from severe depression. Just when he thought things couldn't get any worse, his wife Elaine suffered a cancer scare. She was pregnant at the time and although she was given the all-clear, she lost the baby. Dott was in a bad place and his snooker eventually suffered too and he plunged down the rankings. He eventually faced his demons and, fully recovered, reached the final of the 2010 World Championship. In this inspirational autobiography, Graeme Dott talks for the first time in detail about his depression and about how he has managed to turn his life around. He describes his childhood in one of the toughest parts of Glasgow, tells of his love for Glasgow Rangers and about his snooker career and the part Alex Lambie paled in making his dreams come true. His deep love for Elaine and his children, Lewis and Lucy, emerges in this story of a man who almost lost everything he worked for.

Cue Ball Control Cheat Sheets - Shortcuts to Perfect Position & Shape In Pool & Pocket Billiards I wrote this book to reveal how easy it is to control the cue ball and move it around the table. It is amazing how simple it is to use carefully applied speed and spin. In one respect, a critical pool playing secret is revealed here – control of the cue ball is really easy to learn – when you finally realize you need to know how to precisely hit it with your cue tip.

Each page is your cheat sheet to successfully playing a common layout. Each layout has a cheat tip (sometimes two) on how to get the best results. With study and practice, these layouts will teach you to master and manage the cue ball to your best advantage. With these examples, you can successfully adapt your new knowledge into handling other shot opportunities with similar configurations.

Instead of casually learning how to handle these positions through thousands of failed shots, these layouts provide the necessary true knowledge that ensures that you can win more games. Skills will develop as you increase your shooting experience. Add the facts and details in this book to your knowledge base and you will enhance your development as an Intelligent Shooter.

CAREFULLY read the Getting Started section. This provides necessary details to help you achieve the best results in the shortest time. With this material and some practice, you will gain an accurate feel for the speeds and spins.

Good shooting & good luck!

Eye of the Hurricane: The Alex Higgins Story (Mainstream Sport)
When Alex Higgins' first manager bestowed the nickname "Hurricane Higgins" on the young, feisty snooker player, he had no idea just how apt it was to prove over the next 30 years. This is the sad yet uplifting story of a man who had everything to play for, but now has to play hard for anything he can get. Charting his rise and fall, the book questions how a two-time world champion who thrilled millions and glamourized the game can be left penniless and discarded. It tells of his legal battles against snooker's governing bodies and his own personal battle with throat cancer. Describing the man in the kind of brusque and uncompromising way that characterized his game, this biography shows how Higgins, sitting fitfully on snooker's sidelines, still has a story to tell, and another controversy to spark.
