Tilden wrote the book at the close of his record-setting career, having been voted by the Associated Press Sportwriters of America as the “Greatest Player of Half-Century”. He meant the book to provide insights and concepts distilled from a half-century career in tennis.

In his foreword to the book, he remarked: “This book is intended for tennis players… If you are one of the real tennis nuts – and they are legion – this is written for you in the hope that it may fill a real want… If from its pages one player learns something of value that will lift him from just a person who hits a tennis ball to that very different status – a tennis player – I am indeed rewarded.”
