Book Review, © Copyright 2002, Jim Loy
This is perhaps the most interesting bridge book ever written, and there have been many very interesting bridge books. As Alfred Sheinwold said in the introduction, "The Bridge Bum is a book that every bridge player will enjoy reading and that every bridge writer will wish he had written." This is a story of the ups and downs of bridge at the very top level. If you don't play bridge, you probably will still enjoy this book, especially the chapter where he hustles the con men. I'm about to read this book again, because this is quite a book. We need a sequel.
