I'm very fortunate to have received # 3/50, kindly signed by the author. 🙇‍♂️

As promised, here's a picture of the hardcover's binding, which is cloth. You can see it lays flat when opened, even near the front of the book. I'm very pleased with how it turned out. 😀

I was able to add a short bio, comment on the book, and picture of the author to the rear flap of the dust-jacket. You can also see the gold spine lettering on the dark green cloth cover underneath.

A copy arrived today from Kiseido — it looks great! I mostly read ebooks these days, but it always feels good to hold a printed on paper book. 😊

A really great Go book is being released this week. I’m biased not only because I did the layout & cover, but because it’s the book on Go proverbs I’ve wanted ever since I heard that John Power was working on it over 20 years ago.

When it didn’t appear after a few years I thought that it would never be published. Fortunately for Go players it’s now available. There’s even a signed limited edition hardcover version for the bibliophiles! Of course there’s also a digital gobook version from @smartgo which takes full advantage of that format’s features, including the ability to jump to the full game from many of the examples taken from professional play.

It isn’t an inexpensive book, but it is BIG — over 500 double-column 7x10” (178 x 254 mm) pages, making it a good value. You’ll be studying this for a long time.
