Excellent Resource for the Technique, Oct 29 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Tennis Course, Volume 1: Techniques and Tactics (Paperback)
One of the best on technique written by top German (Deustcher Tennis Bund) authorities. There are multiple action-photo sequences for most techniques and illustrations of errors and what to do. Few books come close to its clarity or thoroughness in covering tactics. It is a bit dry (as with other German tennis books) but that doesn't take away from the usefulness of this tome as a reference.
The tactical section leaves much to be desired however, since it discusses mostly technique but doesn't address how the two really come together. Two-thirds or more of the book is devoted to technique. The tactical section is quite applicable although basic.

ACE, Dec 7 2000
This review is from: Tennis Course, Volume 1: Techniques and Tactics (Paperback)
Besides Dick Gould's classic book on tennis instruction. This is one of the best modern books on modern tennis techniques and tactics that I have come across. I was looking for a book on tennis instruction for a friend and came across this gem. Easy to follow with many illustrations and some pictures and loads of good sound tennis advice. This book serves up an ACE!
