Defence Help!
6 May 2007
Format:Paperback
Defence is the hardest part of the wonderful world of bridge. As in all their books, these writers offer tips that are not only first rate but understandable for the accomplished player as well as someone trying to learn the game and everyone in between.

Bridge enlightened
26 Feb 2009
Format:Paperback
The first book I've read that explains to me 'why' a certain defense works. I have a hard time memorizing rules, but I can understand logic and the logic provided by the author makes it much easier to apply the rules - especially in situations where a little creativity is needed in order to defend a contract.

Bridge Defender
19 Mar 2007
Format:Paperback
It is an excellent book. The subject is difficult to define a set
of rules. However, this book tries perhaps too hard to force a variety of conventions which leads to some confusion. Nevertheless, the book is very useful and should be on the bookself with other bridge books.
