Publisher's Synopsis
This book has every attribute that should appeal to everyone interested in bridge.
It is authoritative. It is comprehensive, including a full review of the requirements for bids in all situations. It presents the fine points of bridge in the most palatable way, with bridge hands that are intrinsically interesting.. This book teaches lessons that can be applied to innumerable other hands arising in normal play. Almost any time one plays bridge he is likely to encounter a situation in bidding or play that will be clear to him because of something he read in this book.
"Not the least part of the book's charm for me is the group of essays on interesting aspects of bridge, some of them technical or instructive but others concerned with sidelights that would engross even a person who does not play bridge."
