Editorial Reviews
Midwest Book Review
Sharpen Your Tactics! features 1125 brilliant sacrifices, combinations and studies of chess by Grandmaster Anatoly Lein. Hundreds of these examples of chess wizardry have never before been available in the west. Sharpen Your Tactics! is a unique training book that will be of immense benefit to both the novice and the experienced chess player. Indeed, every class of chess player will benefit from the insights and examples provided by Grandmaster Lein. The examples are rated by difficulty, from easy to very challenging. The problems gradually become more difficult as the reader moves through the book, leading the chess player deeper into the world of high-level chess tactics. Sharpen Your Tactics! will significantly improve the playing of any serious chess student!

From the Publisher
Sharpen your Tactics! is a delightful and most instructive chess combination book. The book starts with easy combinations and progresses to difficult. The unique thing about this combination book is that most of the problems come from master games played in the old Soviet Union and very few of these have been seen in the west. The authors suggest a systematic training method to get the most benefit from your study time. "Chess is 99% tactics" as Teichmann once said, and tactics will greatly strengthen your game after you have seen and studied the more than 1,000 brilliant combinations in "Sharpen your Tactics!."
