Classic and Modern Conventions, Part I

343 pages, hardcover, by Magnus Lindkvist.

In this, the first of three volumes, we look at auctions after natural opening bids on the one level. Different kinds of conventional responses and continuations are described in detail.

Also included is a chapter where we look briefly at many different kinds of bidding systems and a chapter about generalities with methods for hand evaluation, fits, rules and principles. For the more experienced players we have also included several variants of relay bids and some unusual artificial methods such as transfer responses.

"Bridge Classic and Modern Conventions is an outstanding book and is the first in a 3-part series. Not only is it a reference work for conventions but it also contains excellent sections on hand evaluation methods, fit and misfit assessment, rules and principles such as the useful-space principle, fast arrival, and many more."
Ron Klinger (Australia)

"The book contains index, definitions and glossary and it's clear that the book is primarily intended as an encyclopedia. You can find information on a convention or a system with notes about who made it and when, how to use it and the pros and cons. The book contains many descriptive examples. The reader can get many good ideas from this book."
