4.0 out of 5 stars A great "special topics" endgame book, April 11, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Winning Endgame Technique (Paperback)
DO NOT buy this book as your first endgame book! This is a book for readers who have some endgame books under their belt, for this book does not give the fundamentals. However, if the reader has the basics of the endgame (espcially Rook and Pawn, and King and Pawn endings) this book is very good for helping the reader learn to play less common positions. An important aspect of this book is that in many ways it teaches endgame players to not play blindly on the "cliches" of the endgame ("Rooks belong behind passed pawns," etc.). Many original positions are given, and original methods of play and paradoxical moves are a routine occurence. Very good for practical endgames. Good practice for improving technique.
