The tactics course from the "Textbook of Chess" by Dr. Siegbert Tarrasch in a modern form - newly edited and published by Heinz Brunthaler.

Dr. Tarrasch was one of the strongest and most successful chess masters of his time and one of the five players who were the first to be awarded the title of "Grandmaster" - even though he was not a professional player, but practiced as a doctor all his life.

Even more important than his achievements on the chessboard is his work as a chess teacher and author. Tarrasch not only knew how to comment on chess games with skill and humor, but also how to present the rules and laws of chess in a way that is easy to understand for weaker players. Countless chess players owe Dr. Tarrasch's work and method for a better understanding of the principles of chess.

His "Textbook of Chess" was the prototype of the modern chess textbook and is still of great use today.

The extensive tactics section of this book has been presented in a modern, more readable format and is now suitable to offer a comprehensive and entertaining introduction to chess fans who want to learn more about chess tactics and combinations.
