Bridge in the Menagerie

Various animals depict Bridge players that you can recognize from your own Bridge set. I guess I would be partial to the Hideous Hog player because I always bid 1 NT so that I get to play game in NT rather than any partner who can't count to 9 tricks.Nice book to show there are many ways to skin a cat or a rabbit in this case unless the rabbit has 4 lucky feet and therefore will be my partner. The book is nice departure from dry Bridge books. I wish I had thought the concept myself.HH and RR

Great purchase for the bridge lover in your life! Our dad loved it! Said his bridge club raves about it.

This is my second copy - the last one was borrowed and never returned

I purchase 3 items and gave them as gifts to various friends

Hilarious and perfect for bridge groupies. I've always loved Victor Mollo's column in the Bridge Bulletin and was disappointed it was no longer there. I have given this wonderful book to 4 other folks that share my love for bridge.

I love this book! It's not really about learning how to play, but the short stories are entertaining with all the distinct characters! A classic that every bridge player should give a try

I bought the book to give to my mother who is an avid bridge player. I thought it would challenge her mind in a pleasantway. Unfortunately, I think this might have been good in her forties, but she does not have the patience to read andcontemplate while in her nineties. She is an excellent reader, but I think the book was too difficult.

Great characters and sense of humour. It has, of course a limited practical application due to the high difficulty of the plays presented, but parts of the logic will always be useful.

I was so pleased to see this had been reprinted. This book brings fun and erudition together and despite having been written way back when the hands and play sequences still work today for the most part. The characterisations of the players is hilarious. A classic for any bridge player's collection

This is probably one of the best books on the game that I have read. Highly entertaining and extremely instructive, any reader can recognize and relate to opponents at the bridge-table at their own club.

A true classic. Essential reading for all bridge players with a sense of humour.

This was a present for my husband who had a copy years ago and didn't know what had happened to it. It was like old friends meeting again and is a must for bridge lovers.

Bought this for my Dad as a Xmas gift and he said it was extremely entertaining. Well worth the money and fast delivery (prime trial) ;)
