Synopsis

Master the basics and core strategies of Bridge with a trusted, classic guide.

This edition presents clear, concise rules and explains the reasoning behind each one. It covers the essentials of setup, dealing, declaring the trump, and the play of the hand, along with the all-important scoring system. You’ll also find practical guidance on memory, inference, and etiquette at the table to help you play more confidently.

Beyond the rules, the book offers structured guidance on how tricks and honours are counted, how doubling and redoubling affect scores, and how to read and communicate with your partner through careful, legal play. It balances theory with actionable steps you can apply in real games.

  • Setup, dealing, and the mechanics of play
  • Trump declarations, doubling, and redoubling concepts
  • How trick and honour scores combine to win a rubber
  • Etiquette, memory tips, and in-game inference to guide decisions

Ideal for readers new to Bridge and for players seeking a solid, practical reference on this edition’s rules and approach.
