Looking for good non-poker gambling books

[westside_eh]

I have a new goal; I want to be able to beat my friends in pretty much any card game, regardless if we're playing for money or not.

So I am looking for books for the following games:
-Hearts
-Rummy (Gin and Normal)
-Cribbage

What's out there? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

You could do worse than by going to some of the really big online book dealers. To find them, simply do a Google search for second-hand book dealers etc. I did that originally, when I became interested in poker (before finding 2+2), and found Abe Books. They permit searches of their 12,500 affiliate book dealers inventories, a total number of books placed on Abe Books of nearly 100 million volumes. Then just go ahead and search for topics like "Hearts cards," etc. When you get a useful find, then complete your search on Abe based on the ISBN number. A problem is that sometimes a book will be described with a title that is slightly different, book dealer by dealer, so a simple search by title misses some useful search fills. Hope all this helps!
