One of the earliest books devoted to the subject of draw poker, with an attractive chromolithographic illustration of a royal flush on the front cover. "Nor is the love that [draw poker] engenders confined to any social class or classes. Rich and poor, high and low, good and bad, male and female yield to the fascinations of Poker. Among its votaries are to be found statesmen, priests, financiers, littérateurs, artists, tradesmen and artisans" See less
