Opis: A Handbook of Whist - Author Unknown

Excerpt from A Handbook of Whist: And Ready Reference Manual of the Modern Scientific Game

In this handbook an attempt is made to condense, arrange, and to marshal into a system all the specific directions for play that could be found in the works of the acknowledged masters of the game of whist. The object is to present these directions, unencumbered by explanation or discussion, in a form convenient for reference.

Many topics are omitted, in which a novice would find instruction necessary.

To the unscientific player, it may seem a perplexing mass of details, - of doubtful authority, and challenging a most prodigious effort of the memory.

But to the genuine student of whist, who has perused such works as those of Pole and Cavendish, and strives to apply their principles in his play, this Handbook of Reference is offered, to show him, at a glance, what to do in any given situation,-what to lead, and what to play.
