Renowned classics and hidden gems alike congregate in this
exceptional manual of card playing. Written by longtime tutor and
enthusiast of cards, Bernard Trevelyan, this book impeccably
details dozens of classic card games. Well-known and world famous
examples such as Whist and Cribbage receive detailed guidance and
strategic discussion, while several hidden gems no longer commonly
played likewise feature. Variations and clever interpretations also
feature, encouraging the budding player to conjure his own playing
quirks and methodology. Richly written with lucidity and clarity,
this book is comfortably successful in conveying the author's
passion for cards. In obtaining this title, both the eager beginner
and curious veteran eager to learn the workings of sometimes
forgotten classic card games will be impressed and spurred to
understanding.
