Reviews

[Acheron Welch · Rating 3 out of 5]

Pretty boring read but informational. Good to have around while playing the games.

[Nicole · Rating 4 out of 5]

History, rules, etiquette, reasoning behind virtually every boardgame and card games.

If you play cards at all, this is the resource book for you.
