Description

20 years ago, Mike Lawrence published a series of short pamphlets for intermediate players with advice on various aspects of bidding and cardplay. Long unavailable, this material has now been revised, updated, and republished in three anthology volumes, each comprised of about 10 of the original booklets. The topics here comprise: Defense (including opening leads, signaling and third hand play) and declarer play (including endplays, simple squeezes, loser on loser plays, and timing). There is also a general discussion of the mistakes we all make in cardplay but need to avoid. Lawrence is acknowledged as one of the two or three best writers in the world for intermediate players, and there will be a ready audience for this series in its new format.
