Excerpt from The Standard Hoyle: A Complete Guide and Reliable Authority Upon All Games of Chance or Skill Now Played in the United States, Whether of Native or Foreign Introduction
It would be impossible. To print into one volume the thousand and one games which are only occasion'ally played. The larger proportion of such games have but a temporary existence, and played to-day are for gotten to-morrow. The ingenuity of the maker of new games is endless, but his apparent genius generally amounts to nothing more than the changing or blending of one or two well-known games and the produc tion of a worthless hybrid.
The standard hoyle has been supplemented with the leading in and out of door games due to physical skill, and the description of such games, with their rules, adds in no small degree to the general usefulness of the volume.
