RARE FIRST EDITION OF PIETRO BINI'S ANTHOLOGY ON FLORENTINE FOOTBALL a forerunner to the modern games of soccer rugby and American football. THIS IS ONE OF THE EARLIEST TREATISES ON THAT PREDECESSOR TO OUR MODERN GAMES.<br> In the game of calcio two teams each consisting usually of 27 men are engaged on an enclosed ground of 172 x 82 braccie fiorentine just little smaller than a modern football field. The action consists of carrying and kicking a pumped ball of medium size with fists and feet hence the name calcio in order to make it pass beyond the terminal barriers of the adversaries' half. One such successful action is called caccia. The team making the most caccie is the winner. Games typically last one hour and are played 'for honour's sake'.<br> The wonderfully detailed description of the game is largely by Giovanni de' Bardi and though it was first published anonymously nearly a century earlier the text included here is greatly expanded and illustrated. It fully explains the rules and manners of the game and describes a number of games that had recently been played in and near Florence. The double-page plate depicts a match in the Piazza Santa Croce is very impressive and provides us with a lasting 17th century "instant replay" of the event.
