Description
The card-play exploits of the monks at St Titus have a special place in bridge literature and their fame has now spread round the world. This collection of highly entertaining and absorbing stories from the monastery includes a further hilarious interlude with the missionary monks and the celebrated bridge-playing parrot in the Bozwambi jungle. 'The fourth volume sees the authors at their best, wickedly funny... The principal feature that makes Reese's and Bird's efforts stand apart, more even than the entertainment factor, is the fact that the hands they use are of genuine interest.' - Bridge Magazine.
