Compiled with Gordy Sabine, this is a monumental bibliographical achievement that must have taken many years and much labor to complete. A catalogue of English-language literature of tennis (formerly known as lawn tennis) through 125 years, it contains more than 3,200 citations accessed by author, subject, title and year. It will no doubt long remain an invaluable resource for any research library as well as all serious students of the game. Frank Phelps, whose erudition regarding the history of tennis is wide-ranging and profound, has given enduring expression to his own love of the game through this impressive work.
