| Synopsis: While the 
    bidding is traditional British Acol, Reese's instruction on card play and 
    defense remains valuable even for a modern North American reader. The 
    purpose of this book is to provide a complete and objective account of how 
    to become acquainted with the fascinating game of bridge. Reese is not 
    concerned simply to give rules of thumb, as were so many authors both before 
    and after him. He is concerned with providing a basic handbook of bridge 
    that tells players the reasons for certain lines of bidding and play. The 
    principles of strategy, starting with the fundamentals and working up to 
    some quite advanced points are explained and no rules are laid down without 
    the reasons for them being explained. Here you will find not only what to do 
    but why you should do it.
