Set in a small industrial town at the start of the 20th century, this is the humorous story of Edward "Denry" Machin. Denry is an impulsive, opportunistic, and occasionally lucky entrepreneur with few scruples where money-making is concerned. Not especially likeable yet not entirely loathsome, Denry makes for a very entertaining character to both the fictional townsfolk and readers of this tale alike. A story full of hilarity and sure to entertain any reader, this book is an ideal addition to any bookshelf and a veritable must-read for fans of Bennett's work. Enoch Arnold Bennett was an English writer, most renowned as a novelist but also working in other fields such as journalism, film, and propaganda. Originally written in 1911, we are proud to republish this classic book now with a new introductory biography of the author.

The Penguin Book of Card Games is the authoritative up-to-date compendium, describing an abundance of games to be played both for fun and by serious players. Auctions, trumpless hands, cross-ruffing and lurching: card players have a language all of their own. From games of high skill (Bridge) to games of high chance (Newmarket) to trick-taking (Whist) and banking (Pontoon), David Parlett, seasoned specialist in card games, takes us masterfully through the countless games to choose from. Not content to merely show us games with the conventional fifty-two card pack, Parlett covers many games played with other types of cards - are you brave enough to play with Tarot? With a 'working description' of each game, with the rules, variations and origins of each, as well as an appendix of games invented by the author himself, The Penguin Book of Card Games will delight, entertain and inform both the novice and the seasoned player.
