More great bridge humour from Reese and Bird.
This is the fourth book in the series about the bridge playing exploits of the fictional Monks of St. Titus Abbey. It follows the format of the earlier books in that each chapter contains a small number of hands played by a common set of characters in a specific setting. A bonus in this book is the first appearance of Robin Hood and his band of outlaws playing against the Sheriff of Nottingham. ...

Wonderful bridge humour
This is the second book in the "Monks of St.Titus" series in which we see the Abbot and his community spending as much time at the Bridge table as at Prayer. The book is presented as a collection of individual or grouped hands and there is no need to tackle these books in sequence. The hands are interesting and the presentation is very funny indeed. The material originally appeared as a series ...

All "I" need to know about Play
I have been playing bridge for years but had little improvement before and now I know why. I need a reference book that help me to tackle the common situations that come up in the play. This book contains 14 chapters each deals with commonly encountered situations in bridge play. Each chapter has self-explanatory sub-headings that I can reference the materials very easily. Moreover, examples ...

What else can be better?
This book provides the reader with a sufficient knowledge on the bidding and the bridge conventions, and yet it is so easy to understand! I'm grateful to come across it when I'm looking for books on bidding; a must-have for those who wishes to improve and master on bidding.

KING OF THE WILD FRONTIER
WHETHER THIS IS, AS IT CLAIMS TO BE, THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF THE LEGENDARY FRONTIERSMAN OR NOT (IT INCLUDES ENTRIES UP TO THE DAY BEFORE THE ALAMO FALLS!), IT IS AN ENTERTAINING NARRATIVE IN SIMPLE LANGUAGE TOLD AS THOUGH FROM FIRST HAND KNOWLEDGE. CERTAINLY A GREAT AMOUNT OF RESEARCH WENT INTO THE BOOK, AND IT MAY VERY WELL BE THE AUTHENTIC ITEM WITH A "GHOST" (NO PUN INTENDED) WRITER SUPPLYING THE ...

An informative read...
Reading this book and working through the cd won't exactly make you a broadcasting star, but it definitely guides you at the required talents and qualifications for conforming to industry standards. The cd-rom consists of video and audio segments or snippets as they are quite short on the average; it includes voice commentaries, installation videos, teleprompters, and practice media for ...

Good quality Kindle transcription
There are a number of low-cost Kindle editions of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. Unfortunately the transcription quality varies, with one suffering from lots of spurious line-breaks and another suffering from awkward not-quite-in-place footnotes. After reviewing three samples, I went with this one. The only weakness I've noticed is that there is no table of contents, but that isn't a major ...

Very funny, a great read.
This is the third book in the Monks of St.Titus Bridge series. As with the earlier works, the book follows the exploits of the Bridge playing monks in England and also, it picks up on the adventures of their missionary outpost in Africa. As usual, the format concentrates on play rather than on bidding. Rather than being presented as pure puzzles, the play unfolds in a narrative style. This ...

Not the best of this series
This is the last book in the series of humourous pieces about the Bridge playing monks of St.Titus to carry the name of Terence Reese as a co-author. The series continued later with David Bird working alone after the death of Reese. The pieces here all appeared in various bridge magazines in the years immediately before publication in the book form. The original articles were the sole work of ...
