Designed to appeal to the beginner in bridge, this book aims to develop any lessons learnt in bridge schools or evening classes. The book takes a slower but far more thorough approach, enabling the beginner to practise alone and build a platform of basic knowledge to take into open play. The three corner stones for the platform are familiarity with a pack of cards, knowledge of the rules and procedure and a full understanding of the scoresheet. Danny Roth is the author of "Bridge: The Expert Improver".
