Thirteen Lectures Addressed to Children' is a somewhat quirky but intriguing text that delves into the complexities and nuances of the game of whist, while simultaneously making it accessible to younger audiences. The book, considered a niche publication in the field of card games, utilizes a lecture-style format presumably to both educate and entertain a juvenile demographic. Hewby's literary style in this work is characterized by a didactic yet whimsical approach, a testament to his ability to engage with a youthful readership. Though there is limited biographical information available on Hewby, his work on whist contributes to the cultural and historical understanding of card games. The book does not merely instruct on the rules of whist but also addresses the importance of fair play and critical thinking, going beyond the surface of the game to impart broader life lessons. Hewby's 'Whist; or, Bumblepuppy?' stands as a singular contribution in the realm of instructional gaming literature for children, reflecting a unique perspective on how games can serve as educational tools.
