The Art of Darts
It seems that John Lowe is angling to publish as many books as he’s won tournaments. His fifth book – The Art of Darts (Hodder and Stoughton) – hit the stands on May 28 to mixed reviews.
Some have taken issue with the cover.
Others have pointed out a typographical error or two and a mistaken reference to Canada’s John Part having won only two world championships, suggesting the book was rushed.
Some have observed that much of the information in the book can be found on the Internet.
Others claim the book is too basic. Still others feel much of the material is too advanced and only of value to aspiring darts professionals.
Of course, everyone is entitled to an opinion. Probably all of the book’s detractors are experts who, in their 30-year professional darts careers, have won more than 1,000 tournaments including three world championships and picked up a £102,000 for recording a perfect game on television.
