Thank you for the invitation. I've just joined.
I could have sworn that I had 2 'Bridge in the Menagerie' (i.e., Hideous Hog) bridge books (by Victor Mollo) in my collection. But I think there are still a few misplaced boxes of books I need to locate. I have several years of 'The Bulletin: Contract Bridge' magazine from the late 1970s. They have the articles. But it's not the same as a dedicated book (or 6). Are there any other books?
I never registered my International Master Points (IMP). I think I had about .01 IMPs. OK, I'm dreaming. It wasn't nearly that much.
What is your opinion of Flannery O'Connor? I recently purchased her Library of America (LOA) volume.
