5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Book for Middle and Advanced Chess Players!,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 639 End Game Positions (Paperback)
The book really walks one through the pros and cons of what it is to be at the final stages of an endgame in Chess. Excellent book to have on one's shelf for reference. I recommend it for those that want to improve endgame tactics and understanding of different positions that usually wind up in a draw or a material victory based on the ratio of pawns and pawn positions.
