Go for Beginners Paperback – March 12, 1977

Great introduction to the game. Simple instructions, sample set ups and easy to understand examples.

Excellent "Go for Dummies" book. Good illustrations and descriptions.

This was a good book to begin to get a handle on playing the game. It encourages thinking about strategy first, but it does include samples of play which are easy to understand. The book is a little bit above the patience level of a ten year old, but easily read. So if you're giving this to a child, make sure you plan to spend some time reading and discussing.

Picked this up with a board to teach the kids the game. Perfect for the job.

Had to buy this for my son along with the board! Love’s strategy board games. Thank you.

this book is a good way to open up the doors to the GO game....

Used book . Book is for beginners. Looks potentially helpful

With somethings, like old games that are still played, you don't need the "newest" book out there. In fact, I think this is probably the best "beginner" book in existence (at least for English speaking audiences). Simple, clear, and very helpful. Read this first if you are thinking of picking up the game of Go.
