Close Encounters Book 1: 1964 to 2001 Summary

Close Encounters Book 1: 1964 to 2001: Bridge's Greatest Matches by Mark Horton

Over 100 years of bridge history, it is not surprising that one can find many matches and events that came down to the last board, or even the last card, played. And of course, there is an added poignancy in these situations that derives from the fact that bridge is a unique sport in one aspect - the players do not know the score. In this book, the authors have collected dozens of fascinating deals, each of which was that last board - the one that decided a world title or represented an individual triumph or tragedy. Skill level: general interest for all bridge players.
