Chambers Card Games by Peter Arnold

Chambers Card Games by Peter Arnold

Chambers Card Games includes a wide-ranging selection of almost 100 card games: setting out the rules, explaining how to play and offering strategies and hints. Clear and concise, this new fully-illustrated collection is authoritative yet - as importantly - great fun. There's a glossary, a history of card games, advice on card-playing etiquette and information on playing cards on the Internet. Find the card game you're after with the useful list of alternative names, or use the number of players index to find a game for every occasion. There's also a unique supplement on cheating: protect yourself from card sharks ... or pick up a tip or two to get ahead on the sly.

Peter Arnold is an author and editor, most of whose 50 or so books concern sports and games. He has written histories and encyclopedias of boxing, cricket, football and the Olympic Games, and wrote the official FIFA guide to the 1994 Football World Cup in the USA. He has also worked as editor and main contributor of part-works on boxing and football, and has ghost-written instruction books for a West Indian Test fast bowler and a Canadian world snooker champion.
