...a classic primer on the play of cards at contract bridge...the basic card play explained simply, illustrated clearly and readily understood by even the most casual of players...advanced players are directed to part two...but recommended to anyone interested in the history of bridge, the evolution of the game (at play) and its connection to today's renderings...

Read Watson to Play Better
Still the best book on playing the hand after 80+ years.

Watson's Play of the Hand
Simply the BEST book ever written on the topic. I insist that my students purchase it and read it after the basics courses. I re-read it myself periodically. It has been around for a long time but it's still the best.

A Classic
Watson's Play of the Hand is number one among students of the game for a reason. It has what's needed and it's extremely readable. My bridge partner and I agreed on it being one of our four basic texts. Read it the way you read bridge columns, a bit every day.
