Helen Leslie Coops, born in 1901, was an American educator who had already written on organised recreation; here she describes each game plainly - the deal, the object, the rules that govern it - and gives a diagram showing where every card belongs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSome of these will be familiar to anyone who has ever clicked through a hand on a screen. Others - Nivernaise, Idle Year, Auld Lang Syne, Baker's Dozen - have slipped almost entirely out of circulation, and are worth reviving.
