The Elephant,
By david t shanks (Rugeley, Staffordshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Xiangqi Syllabus on Elephant - Chinese Chess 3 (3rd Volume in Premier Series on Xiangqi) (Paperback)
This (like all the other books in the series)is an excellent book.The elephant is very much the neglected piece.Often dismissed or ignored by others.This book proves them wrong.The many subtle uses of the elephant are described in detail in the quiet opening ,the mid-game and its often crucial role in the end game.The elephant is MUCH more than just a defensive piece and this book teaches you how to use it to full advantage.One of the best books i have ever bought.
5.0 out of 5 stars
A must for Xiangqi players,

This review is from: Xiangqi Syllabus on Elephant - Chinese Chess 3 (3rd Volume in Premier Series on Xiangqi) (Paperback)
David Li has written five books on Chinese Chess and all are essential reading for non-Chinese players unfamiliar with the written Chinese. He writes clearly and concisely and the annotated games are well selected to provide clear instruction.
