If you want to succeed at whist, either be a good whist-player, or play with marked cards. You may want a book about jumping; you may want a book about whist; you may want a book about cheating at whist.

Marking a book is literally an expression of your differences or your agreements with the author. It is the highest respect you can pay him.
