Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Contract bridge, usually known simply as bridge, is a trick-taking card game played by four players in two competing partnerships using a standard deck of 52 playing cards with partners sitting opposite each other around a table. For purposes of scoring and reference, each player is identified by one of the points of the compass and thus north and south play against east and west. The game consists of several hands (ordeals) each progressing through four phases - dealing the cards, the auction playing the hand, and scoring the results. This book overviews the game of bridge including the bidding box, bridge scoring, hand evaluation, and the World Bridge Federation.
