Review:

"This volume might be quite an eye-opener if you, as did this reviewer, believe that the sport of paint balling is merely a matter of several friends getting together in a field to have a little game of high-tech and messy tag. Who would have guessed that there is a 'history' to paint ball, and who would believe that paint ball is organized enough to require rules? All this is revealed 'and much, much more.' The equipment and gear are fully discussed, drills and tactics recommended, and the future of paint ball analyzed. Plentiful full-color photos accompany the text on virtually every page. If the enthusiasm of the boys at this middle school library is any indication, this guide is a 'must buy.'"
