Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

The fascinating intricacies of bridge can boggle the minds of newcomers and put them off learning the game. Jonathan Davis shows that while the subtleties of master play may take years to master, anyone can learn the game well enough to enjoy playing in a single weekend. He makes it easy by breaking down the game into a few technical matters and a series of techniques that can be learned in bite-size pieces and practiced over two days. He ends his educational "weekend" with additional useful information on bridge etiquette, equipment, bidding tips, and more.

4.0 out of 5 stars Learn Bridge in a Weekend, September 22, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Learn Bridge In A Weekend (Learn in a Weekend Series) (Hardcover)
I had a ten hour plane trip and exactly ten intensly concentrated hours to learn bridge. That weekend I fooled three rather seasoned brige players that I knew what I was doing. The cards favored me, finesses worked (for the most part) and I appeared far more knowledgable than my bridge experience permitted. This book presents the necessities of bridge in an understandable style of teaching. The best part is the photos of card hands which let you focus instead of fumbling with a deck of cards. I had such a good time playing bridge for the first time, I have since signed up for further bridge lessons and now look forward to joining a brdge club. I will always keep a copy of this book for reference.
