A Dictionary of Card Games by David Parlett
Ranging from such classics as bridge, poker, whist, and rummy to the more unfamiliar cucumber, pishti, go fish, and spinado, this book provides clear advice on the rules and playing strategies of virtually any card game popular in the Western world. Discover such historical favourites as hombre, piquet, and trappola, great national games, including belote (France), scopa (Italy), and Skat (Germany), and all manner of patience and tarot games. Whether planning party games (Newmarket, Old Maid, and Oh Hell!), or a civilized card evening with friends, this should be a valuable source of information and entertainment.| SKU | Non disponible |
