Best of Classic Card Games

“In a modern world where we are oversaturated with entertainment, this book takes things back to basics, showing us how to maximize our fun with the standard 52-card deck. This book provides you with a non-expensive way to entertain your friends and family for hundreds of hours. What can be better than that? Welcome to your new obsession!” –Max Derrat
“Starting from first principles, this book provides concise rules for 80 card games that can be played with standard decks of cards. The choice of games described is quite unusual. Along with a selection of well-known classic games, the authors include some relatively new games, some lesser-known local games from various parts of the world, and some almost forgotten historical games. At the end is a useful index organized by number of players and difficulty.” –John McLeod, owner and editor of pagat.com
