Bridge: 25 Ways to Be a Better Defender

by Barbara Seagram, David Bird

Defence is the hardest part of playing bridge, but that doesn't mean that it's impossible to learn. The authors explain how to make a plan as a defender: how to work out from the auction and play what declarer probably has, and which of the strategies available to defenders is likely to be successful.

For advanced bridge players.

Good advanced book on defense. I'm likely too new a player to benefit from this one. Need to start with their earlier books.

[Joe · Rating 3 out of 5]

Somewhat uneven -- some chapters were immediately useful, others had opaque rules (different plays were the "answer" to identical deals in the problem section.
