Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is an educational guide that makes the deceptively complex game of chess approachable. The author leads the learner from establishing the board and pieces, through understanding the mechanics of movement for each piece, to the subtleties of winning the game. There are also lessons on advanced play, strategy, and tactics, to help dedicated players improve their skills. Chess is a famously challenging game with a deep history and rich culture. This book is extensively researched, using sources such as 18th-century primers that espouse the tactics of the day, and more recent material that includes the analytical, more scientific style of play that characterizes chess in modern times. The author draws on these sources to provide a historical and pedagogical framework for each concept. The book approaches chess from first principles, assuming no prior knowledge on the reader's part. Through detailed explanations and illustrative diagrams, the author conveys the logic of chess piece movement. The learner will develop an understanding of how strategy and tactics converge to produce winning outcomes. The author emphasizes tactics such as 'forking', where you attack multiple enemy pieces with a single piece of your own, and 'pinning', where your piece ties an enemy piece to its square, preventing its movement. These and many more tactics are examined in the context of famous games, revealing the motivations behind moves and illustrating how tactical thinking can lead to decisive advantages. Overall, this book is an indispensable guide for budding chess players looking to advance their skills, and for experienced players looking to perfect their strategy. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
