Synopsis

Almost 1000 double dummy problems, ranging from 'very easy' to 'fiendishly difficult', collected by the acknowledged expert in the field. Double dummy problems are to bridge players what chess problems are to lovers of that game: exercises in ingenuity, unexpected manoeuvres, art and beauty. 


Some of the problems in this book were created before bridge - they come from its precursor, whist, but the principles are the same. The problems used in these exercises come from composers around the world, including over 100 by Darwen himself. Any puzzle fan will find hundreds of hours of entertainment in these pages.
