Reviews

Another distinguishing point compared to many books with exercises is that the author pays ample attention to all positions and provides more than sufficient explanation. The reader also receives numerous tips and advice for tackling these types of positions... a great deal of care has been taken in the explanation. In short: it is excellent training material for advanced chess players!

Small Steps to Giant Improvement by Sam Shankland (miękka okładka)

Książka wydana w języku angielskim. Miękka okładka.   In chess you cannot take your move back, but you can always return a misplaced piece to its former square at the cost of some time.
