Card Games by David Parlett

Besides obvious games like bridge, whist and cribbage, this book includes games of mainly regional popularity that deserve to be more widely played, such as euchre; some of mainly historical popularity that deserve to be rediscovered by each new generation, such as piquet; and one or two "invented" or exotic games worth describing because they offer unusual points of interest, marking them off from the usual run of card games.
