From School Library Journal:
YA If those questions about that fascinating piece of curved wood keep coming back to you, this book is virtually guaranteed to satisfy the queries of even the most besotted boomerang fan. It does indeed tell in detailed but readable prose how to throw, catch and make it as well as a wealth of anecdotal and historical information, rules for various types of competitions, contacts for boomerang clubs everywhere and loads of other "fun facts." Even those with minimal interest will be caught up by the extremely accessible style and layout. There are only two drawbacks worth mentioning: there is no index, and the book comes packaged complete with a boomerang. Catherine Chauvette, Fairfax County Public Lib . , Va.

From Publishers Weekly:
Copyright 1986 Reed Business Information, Inc.
In this imaginatively conceived and executed guide, which comes with a polypropelene boomerang, Ruhe, a founder of the United States Boomerang Association, and Darnell, a boomerang designer, manufacturer, and top-ranked international competitor, trace the Australian aboriginal roots of the intriguing object and explore its aerodynamics. Sections on games and competition strategies are easy to follow, as are the illustrated instructions for throwing and catching the "thinking man's Frisbee." The authors also describe how to construct a boomerang, and include the names and addresses of boomerang clubs. All in all, a delightful package. December
