Go Worlds Going Fast

Inspired by the announcement of plans to end publication of Go World, the superb quarterly that published top-level instructional material and analysis of more than 1,000 of the most important games over the past 35 years (Endgame for Go World Magazine After 35 Years  11/16 EJ), The American Go Foundation is now offering its massive inventory of the last available issues for sale to all AGA members (shipping within the US only).  All proceeds from the sale go directly to the AGF to support their work promoting go in the US. "The response has been stronger than expected," according to AGF VP Paul Barchilon. "We're already out of several rare issues, and running low on others." The Feng Yun Go School alone has ordered more than 500 copies. "We have given back issues of Go World as prizes to better students for years," Ms. Feng says. "For many, they have never seen anything like it. It's a real eye opener. The AGF is doing good work that benefits kids and go education in America, so supporting their mission with this purchase is also attractive. " Never seen GW? The AGF has secured exclusive rights to offer a sample issue for download. More than 30 issues are currently available, but act fast! A collection would make a perfect holiday gift for the go lover in your life. (Please feel free to print this and pass it along.)
