Help
Can anyone compare Romanet to Kelsey on their squeeze books.
Is it worthwhile to seek French to English translation of Romanet? ?
Not just for play, but as a reference too. I mean not to exclude rare just because they don't occur. Still want to see them.

Romanet is very theoretical, but's got a lot of info. I haven't read Kelsey, but I can imagine it's a more practical book.

Romanet book on all the squeeze is the best book i have read. It was in french & it was close to 500 pages. I suppose there is a lot of shorter version of the book. I dont recall the exact title. But try to find the biggest romanet book on squeeze and you will be very satisfied.

I happen to think it's a very noble way to meet one's maker, especially for a guy like him.
Bottom line is we never let that difference of opinion interfere with anything."

Is Romanet worth learning French for?

maybe not, but its worth buying/checking the the books just for the problems.
Le Squeeze au Bridge Tome I: Le Squeeze Simple, 1977
Le Squeeze au Bridge Tome II: Le Double Squeeze, 1978
Le Squeeze au Bridge Tome III: Squeeze A L'Atout Squeeze A Retardement La Desqueesification, 1978.
I think these are close or the same book ive read since they add up to 450 pages. Just the section on how to break a squeeze is worth the price of the book.
Putting them in 3 tomes make sense since an average player will have no use for the 3rd book and an accomplished player can bypass the first book.
