5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Book On The Subject (The Only Book On The Subject), December 10, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: The Oxford Guide to Card Games (Oxford guides) (Hardcover)
There are many books describing the rules of card games, but this is the only book that explains why the rules are what they are. David Parlett's text winds through the intriguing history of card games. From early gambling games to modern contract bridge, this book explains why we play what we play. This book is for anyone who ever wanted to know where the jokers came from or what all those suit symbols meant. A great gift for the game players in your family.
