Bobby Wolff in January 2013 said:

Jimmy's recent book "A World Bridge History" chronicles much of the above without failing to give credit to those who richly deserve it."
Bobby Wolff mentions this book by Jaime Ortiz-Patino in his blog and again in Jaime's obituary on the WBF site. Have you read it or do you know anything about it?
