In Response To: related question about Magriel Backgammon book (Casper van der Tak)

Agree with Casper.

Jeremy Bagai wrote a book, Classic Backgammon Revisited:

http://www.fortuitouspress.com/cbr.html

which rolled out and then analyzed positions from three well known and respected early books (Magriel's Backgammon, Robertie's Advanced Backgammon and Dwek's Backgammon for Profit). The positions in Bagai's book were all ones that the rollouts disagreed with the authors.

You can buy that book (and a lot more) from Carol Joy Cole:
