Searching for Bubbe Fischer: The Path to Mah Jongg Wisdom

Part mah jongg manual/part memoir, "Searching for Bubbe Fischer" tells the story of a novice player's quest for the ultimate mentor.

What she found along the way was far more enlightening than just how to play the game. The book includes lessons for beginner, intermediate and advanced level players, as well as information on tournaments, etiquette and how to play a three-man game.
