First published in 1959; the English translation was published first in 1961. The book contains a certain humor, profoundness and originality, which won tremendous acclaim and popularity in France and Europe. The book was adapted for English readers by Mr. Terence Reese.Canapé is a bidding method, note that it is not a system, in which the long suit is normally, usually, generally bid on the second round. This bidding method was developed by Mr. Pierre Albarran, 1894 to 1960, in France, and which became quite popular. In comparison, standard methods are described in France as la longue d'abord, or long suit first.The Canapé bidding method has also influenced Italian bidding theory. It was incorporated into both the Roman and Blue Team Club systems, and also in derivative bidding systems such as the Orange Club, which was successfully played by Bob Hammon and Bobby Wolff, and the Simplified Club, which is a total canapé bidding system.The definition given by Mr. Pierre Albarran was that a two-suited hand of more than minimum strength, the higher-ranking suit must be bid on the first round if it has four cards, and on the second round if it has more than four cards.Four-card Major suits are normally bid ahead of any Minor suit and five-card Major suits are bid on the first round if the hand is minimum. Normal reverse sequences are inverted, or inversé in French. used books,books Books, Barrie & Jenkins<
