Frank Vine (1927-1987) had an acid wit along with a talent for putting pen to paper. A resident of Hamilton, Ontario, Canada and a lawyer by profession, he was also an expert bridge player who won the North American Men's Pairs (arguably in those days the strongest pairs event of the year) in 1969. His trenchant commentaries on the game, often disguised as fiction, appeared regularly in The Bridge World and other magazines in the 1970s and 1980s. Readers familiar with Vine's writings will be delighted to see them once more available, this time in a comprehensive collection. Those who haven't discovered Frank Vine's work before are in for a rare treat.

This review is from: North of the Master Solvers' Club (Paperback)
Most bridge books give you a bunch of hand and recipes for bidding and play. This book is fun. It was my bedtime reading for about a month. You get everything from the stories about Professor Coldbottom to scandle about the Blue Team. This book is not just about bridge, it is about bridge psychology and strategy.
