This book was prepared with the design to having been to afford the novice of the game Bridge with sufficient theoretical knowledge of the principles and strategy of the game to enable the reader to commence the practise in a sound and intelligent manner. It includes full instructions, numerous examples, analyses, illustrative deals, and a complete code of laws, with notes indicating the differing practices at the most prominent clubs. It was originally published in 1902 but will still prove to be of interest to any player or learner of the game. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original artwork and text.
