O knihe
Jesse Quantrell, is abandoned as a child by his backwoods, dysfunctional family. He's left to spend his formative years with the vets at the local VFW in Blackstone, West Virginia. Here, he learns the game of pool from one of the vets, who, was also a retired road player and master of the game.
The sociopathic Jesse breaks away and leaves ten years later, at the age of twenty, and embarks on his pool odyssey through the south. Follow this "Pool Wizard's"journey as he encounters many colorful characters and places, while sharing his passion for the game and hustling his way from town to town searching for the love and acceptance he so desperately longs for.
Al Blackwell has been an avid pool player since childhood. He began playing in local tournaments and leagues in the mid 70's and is still actively playing in them today. He resides in Virginia Beach, Virginia and plays regularly at Q-Master Billiards. Al considers himself a student of the game and enjoys playing one pocket, nine-ball, eight-ball and three cushion billiards.
