The Joys of Sport by William
Yorke Stevenson 1900
This little 6 x 4 book
has 226 pages. There are numerous line drawn pictures by G. R. Brill.
It cost $1.00.
The book consists of 31 chapters each of which describes a different
sport- from Pigeon Shooting to Base Ball, many common and uncommon
sports are included.
The 1901 ad below states "Second Edition". The
second edition has 226 pages. There is an ad which states that the 1900
book has 200 pages. I have been unable to confirm that the first
edition does indeed have 200 pages not the 226 pages.
