Softcover. Condition: Good. Revised. 'The most useful publication in the past twelve months. I unhesitatingly award my accolade to BRIDGE ODDS FOR PRACTICAL PLAYERS because every player should know the material it contains. This cannot be found elsewhere' THE TIMESBacking outsiders has ruined many a punter at the bridge table as well as at the race track. Few players have any idea of how to harness the odds to solve problems that constantly recur. Which is the best line of play? Is it better to finesse or play for the drop? Will the diamonds break? Can the chances be combined? What are the exact odds?Here is a simple guide to solving the problems that arise in assessing the odds in play at bridge. Keeping theory to a minimum, the authors show by means of many practical examples how to calculate the odds and how to come up with the right answer at the bridge table. Anyone who learns to apply the principles set out in this book need never again be accused of playing against the odds.

Softcover. Condition: Good. The definitive history of the Russo-Japanese warThe Russians were wrong-footed from the start, fighting in Manchuria at the end of a 5,000 mile single track railway; the Japanese were a week or so from their bases. The Russian command structure was hopelessly confused, their generals old and incompetent, the Tsar cautious and uncertain. The Russian naval defeat at Tsushima was as farcical as it was complete. The Japanese had defeated a big European power, and the lessons for the West were there for all to see, had they cared to do so. From this curious war, so unsafely ignored for the most part by the military minds of the day, Richard Connaughton has woven a fascinating narrative to appeal to readers at all levels.

Softcover. Condition: Good. First Paperback Edition. Alanbrooke was CIGS - Chief of the Imperial General Staff - for the greater part of the Second World War. He acted as mentor to Montgomery and military adviser to Churchill, with whom he clashed. As chairman of the Chiefs of Staff committee he also led for the British side in the bargaining and the brokering of the Grand Alliance, notably during the great conferences with Roosevelt and Stalin and their retinue at Casablanca,Teheran, Malta and elsewhere. As CIGS Alanbrooke was indispensable to the British and the Allied war effort. The diaries were sanitised by Arthur Bryant for his two books he wrote with Alanbrooke. Unexpurgated, says Danchev, they are explosive. The American generals, in particular, come in for attack. Danchev proposes to centre his edition on the Second World War. Pre and post-war entries are to be reduced to a Prologue and Epilogue). John Keegan says they are the military equivalent of the Colville Diaries (Churchill's private secretary), THE FRINGES OF POWER. These sold 24,000 in hardback at Hodder in 1985.

Book
Hardcover. Condition: Good. First British Edition. Ardis Hall - the Ardors and Arbors of Ardis - this is the leitmotif rippling through ADA, an ample and delightful chronicle, whose principal part is staged in a dream-bright America - for are not American childhood memories comparable to Vineland-born caravellas, indolently encircled by the white birds of dreams? The protagonist, a scion of one of America's most illustrious and opulent families, is Dr Van Veen, son of Baron 'Demon' Veen, that memorable Manhattan and Reno figure. The end of an extraordinary epoch coincides with Van's no less extraordinary boyhood. Nothing in world literature, save maybe Count Tolstoy's reminiscences, can vie in pure joyousness and Arcadian innocence with the 'Ardis' part of the book. On the fabulous country estate of his art-collecting uncle, Daniel Veen, married to the descendant of a Russian princely race, an ardent childhood romance develops in a series of fascinating scenes between Van and pretty Ada, a truly unusual <i>gamine</i>, daughter of Marina, Daniel's stage-struck wife. That the relationship is not simply dangerous <i>cousinage</i> but possesses an aspect prohibited by law is hinted in the very first pages.<br /><br />In spite of the many intricacies of plot and psychology, the story proceeds at a spanking pace. Before we can pause to take breath and quietly survey the new surroundings into which the writer's magic carpet has, at it were, spilled us, another attractive girl, Lucette Veen, Marina'a younger daughter, has also been swept off her feet by Van, the irresistible rake. Her tragic destiny constitutes one of the highlights of this delightful book.<br /><br />The rest of Van's story turns frankly and colourfully upon his long love-affair with Ada. It is interrupted by her marriage to an Arizonan cattle-breeder whose fabulous ancestor discovered America. After her husband's death our lovers are reunited. They spend their old age travelling together and dwelling in the various villas, one lovelier than another, that Van has erected all over the Western hemisphere. <br /><br />Not the least adornment of the chronicle is the delicacy of pictorial detail: a latticed gallery; a painted ceiling; a pretty plaything stranded among the forget-me-nots of a brook; butterflies and butterfly orchids in the margin of the romance; a misty view descried from marbled steps; a doe at gaze in the ancestral park; and much, much more.
