Designers & Dragons: The '80s is a comprehensive picture of the growth of the RPG industry. This 2nd edition expands the original single book into a series of four-beginning with the '70s and ending with the '00s-and we've added over 10,000 new words to this volume alone.

Take an in-depth look at '80s style gaming courtesy of companies like Steve Jackson Games and West End Games, plus an intro to the small (but mighty!) presses of the decade. Regardless of your gaming background, Shannon Appelcline's meticulously researched history won't disappoint.
