Chess: 5334 Problems, Combinations and Games (Paperback)
by Laszlo Polgar
This is the biggest book of chess challenges ever published, with over 1,000 pages packed with over 5,000 fully diagrammed chess problems, games and endgames to challenge everyone from the novice to the grand master. The book includes every known checkmate position, and it covers a complete range of levels to build chess skills. Easy-to-follow solutions to all the puzzles are printed at the back of the book. The features include: 306 Mate in One challenges; 3411 Mate in Two challenges; 743 Mate in Three challenges; 600 Miniature Games; 143 Simple Endgames; and 127 Tournament Game Combinations.
This book provides a wealth of puzzle positions to test just about every facet of your tactical skills. The puzzles in this book have been selected by analysing games new and old in search of original puzzle positions. It is very unlikely that even seasoned solvers will recognise many of these positions. Emms, by allying his skills with those of powerful computers, has also made every effort to ensure that the solutions are sound, and that there are no unmentioned alternative solutions.
The book begins with 100 relatively easy positions suitable for novices, and ends with 100 extremely tough puzzles, which provide a mind-bending challenge even for top-class players. There are 1001 puzzles in all.
