NEW IDEAS ON BRIDGE.
BY ARCHIBALD DUNN, JUN.
The universal reception given to _Bridge, and How to Play it_, is a
sufficient proof of Mr. Archibald Dunn's fitness to give us further
views on this increasingly popular and exciting game. In this volume
the author deals with the many points of contention at present
agitating the minds of Bridge players. In particular, he advances a
novel theory as to "Declarations" and "Doubling," which is not
unlikely to revolutionise existing methods, and to result in placing
these two difficulties of the game on a thoroughly sound and solid
basis.
CONTENTS:--Common-sense in Bridge Declarations--Science of Bridge
Declarations--Doubling and Re-doubling--Some Points of the
Game--Bridge _v_. Whist--Chaos of Bridge--Great Imperfection of
Bridge.
