The epitome of common sense in bidding.

Bill August has that rare capacity that enables a master player to be a good teacher. He has a common sense approach that lets novice, intermediate and expert players hone their bidding abilities to a sharper and more accurate degree. The examples are easy to follow and make for a better understanding of the bidding principals they are meant to illustrate. If there is any degree of uncertainty in your bidding, this book is a must for you.

One of the best bridge books ever written

This is a simple and direct presentation of natural bidding using nothing but logic and reason. It is a presentation which explains the "hows" and "whys" for each action and anyone can learn to be a better player doing nothing but following the "show and tell" concepts.
