Absolutely "Essential" Endgame Reading,
By
This review is from: Chess Endings Essential Knowledge (Paperback)
I agree with the other reader who said that this is a must read for anyone under 1800 USCF.This is a nice, neat concise book (104 pages) that covers everything you need to know about the endings to become a very strong club player. It covers basic mates, as well as rule of the square, rook endings, philidor and lucena positions, triangulation, pawn endings, etc. etc. This book has nice diagrams, and the explainations are excellent. This book does not weight one down with a lot of extra verbage. Many endgame books are a real drudge to work through. This one is just the right blend of material to keep it interesting. Also, the book's petite size means that you will be able to finish it in a reasonable period of time. |
