My Life with Bridge

About the Book

I've written thirty books and thousands of articles on Bridge. This in itself has been a challenge. First, I have to learn what I'm talking about. Then I have to put it into words - that is the easy part.

This book is, for me, a totally new adventure. It's got bridge. It includes a lot of advice. Some system suggestions, strong ones in many cases. And a lot of hands. Bob Hamman wrote the quote on the cover about these hands.

But the bulk of the book is made up of stories that were created as a result of my being in the bridge world. Some of them may seem unlikely, but I promise that all of them are true. In the sixty-four years since I joined the ACBL, I've been privileged to meet a wide range of people. Everyone has a story to tell, and I have heard a lot of them. I've met movie stars, titans in the world of business, sport stars, other writers. And I've conversed with a range of people of various topics.

So this book is to enjoy as much as it is to improve your bridge.

"Mike's selection of hands is worth the price of the book." (Bob Hamman)
