If you are looking for a book on box lacrosse, you will be disappointed. As a newcomer to the sport I was looking for a book to help my two young sons learn lacrosse. Having been aware of the difference between field and box I chose this book based on James Hinkson being the lead author. After purchase I realized that it was in fact a field lacrosse book. For our needs, this was a wasted purchase.
