"Mark Nyman is among the best tournament SCRABBLE players in history. He was one of just a handful of prodigies in the 40-year history of international competition, winning tournaments while just a teenager. His skills and approach to the game have also distinguished him as a respected teacher and promoter of the game."
John D. Williams Jr. Executive Director, National SCRABBLE Association 1987-2014
"Mark Nyman's Scrabble Secrets packs a ton of information in a compact space. It's an effective way to improve one's game in the shortest amount of time. Entertaining too!"
