RIGHT THROUGH THE PACK AGAIN Right Through The Pack (A Bridge Fantasy) by Robert Darvas and Norman de V. Hart was published in 1948 and the idea of each card in the pack telling its own story was an instant hit. It is on virtually every magazine’s and player’s list of the top ten bridge books of all time and has become a bridge classic. A series of articles by Ron Klinger appeared in The Bridge World magazine and featured the Old Master, who managed to snatch victory from impossible situations. Each of these articles is reproduced here. In the final article, Last Hurrah, the Old Master collapses and dies . . . or does he? In Right Through The Pack Again the cards strive to keep the Old Master alive. Each card tells its own tale and how it was the key feature. Not only will you be enchanted by the deals, but you will also learn more about why the Old Master has lost the zest for life. Will the cards be able to restore that zest? Ron Klinger is a leading international bridge teacher and has represented Australia in many world championships from 1976 to 2007. He has written over fifty books, some of which have been translated into Bulgarian, Chinese, Danish, French, Hebrew and Icelandic. He has also written many articles for bridge magazines, including those featuring ‘the Old Master’, and has a website www.ronklingerbridge.com dedicated to the improvement of your game with daily problems and many weekly quizzes.
