Summary: Great book I found at the library.
Comment: A lawyer friend of mine was telling me of his exciting experiences of learning polo while studying at Oxford. When he started to speak about it I thought it was rather pretentious. But as he went more and more detail my interest was piqued.
That's what got me find this book at the library. It's only a little more than 100 pages, but it packs a lot of information for someone new to the sports. From Chuks to mallets, from its military roots to the special breeding of the ponies.
It was absolutely fascinating and spurred me to find a polo learning center in my area. (no pun intended)

Summary: Compact Guide to Polo
Comment: The Polo Primer, as the name suggests, is an introductory guide to polo. It traces the game's history, from its origins in ancient military training to the games of modern times. Equipment, horse selection, learning the strokes, playing as a team, and how to get involved with polo are all covered. My rating of a 9 was based on the length (around 100 pages); I would have preferred a more detailed work. However, a lengthy volume might put off many new comers, whereas this book is the right size for the person deciding whether or not to get into polo
