From a retiree’s stack of left behind books, I picked up a copy of Two-Person Game Theory (1966) by Rapoport. Is this an acceptable first (and possibly only) reading on the topic?

It is good. One of my favorites though is, The Compleat Stategyst, by CD Williams. (I think). It is very lighthearted and much more readable, at perhaps a little lower level than Rapoport.

This looks kind of interesting. For anyone so inclined, the RAND Corporation has made a downloadable copy of _Compleat Stratagyst_ freely available:
