This book provides a roadmap for a player to get from entering the intermediate stage to the advanced stage and from the advanced stage to where they may frequently win at the club level. Each convention and technique is clearly and fully described along with the benefit that it provides. This book enables a player to advance much faster than tradition bridge books.
