I doubt that is the case. But, we're unlikely to find out by polling
RGB.


This has nothing to do with chess. Stop Spamming unless you want your
own 'group' spammed. This constant idiotic spamming of offtopic
newsgroups that make you a target sloan. I have NO sympathy for your
pathetic attemts against the USCF because you are too stupid to figure
out that non chess items should NOT be posted to chess newsgroups.

Default "The Outline of Contract Bridge" by Louis H. Watson has been sentto the printers

The two Watson books on bridge are out now. The reprinting of these
books was completed last week.

You will be able to see that my reprint is a vast improvement over the
1958 Sam Fry reprint. My fonts are larger and clearer. His were
smaller and a bit fuzzy as his book was basically a photocopy.

In short, my reprints are 1000% better than the previous reprint.

This is because of the benefits of modern high technology. It is now
possible for a reprint to come out clearer and better than the
original.

My three reprinted bridge books are available on Amazon at:

It should be out and available for sale in ten days to two weeks. When
it comes out it will be available on Amazon at:

Does anybody have the dust cover for this book and for the other Watson Book "Watson on the Play of the Hand"? I have several copies of
these books but only the hard cover book, not the dust cover. I really
need the dust cover to make my own cover.

After that comes out I will also be reprinting the next Watson book,
which will appear at:

http://www.amazon.com/dp/0923891749

I know that if I were going to start playing bridge again, I would
read Watson's"Outline of Contract Bridge" first, for the simple
reason that it is short enough to digest. The section on The Play of
the Hand is only 149 pages and I could get through that much more
easily than the 492 page longer book.
