{"product_id":"bridges-first-hippie-peter-weichsel-9781771400787","title":"Bridge's First Hippie: Book One","description":"Peter Weichsel has won three world bridge championships, and twenty-five North American titles, and became a member of the Bridge Hall of Fame in 2004. He has been part of great teams (C.C. Wei's Precision Team in the 1970s, and the Aces later on), and has won everything it is possible to win in the game. But that's just his bridge career. This fascinating autobiography tells the story of the man behind those accomplishments. Weichsel has always marched to his own drummer, from his early years as part of a Jewish immigrant family in New York, through his time in the US Navy during the Vietnam war, then experiencing the 60s counter-culture in San Francisco (and bringing that sensibility and dress style to the staid bridge scene), and living through periods as a sports betting baron, a pool shark, and even a mob hit target.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Weichsel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1771400781\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781771400787\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Master Point Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.76lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.05h x 6.13w x 0.49d","brand":"Peter Weichsel","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44213451751679,"sku":"9781771400787","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_92bde938-e9bc-4ada-b5c6-f5f037fd024f.jpg?v=1692113958","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bridges-first-hippie-peter-weichsel-9781771400787","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
