Summary
White Box is an excellent option for those interested in not only a retroclone of original Dungeons & Dragons but simply a rules light not to the fantasy roleplaying of the mid 1970s. The rules are presented clearly, concisely, and entertainingly. I think the line art throughout the book is top notch as well. You can score the softcover for a steal and grab the PDF absolutely free. This is a great book you should add to your collection either as your core light fantasy RPG rules or to crib from for your own system of choice.
