Fundamental chess knowledge with GM Thomas Luther
In this volume by Grandmaster and FIDE Senior Trainer Thomas Luther, the reader will find additional material to support training in "Introduction to Elementary Tactics" and "Chess Tactics and Chess Strategy".
The book can also be used separately for chess enthusiasts who have not read the two textbooks or who are already more advanced.
The author uses a new structure that offers something for both beginners and advanced trainers.
Beginners can work their way up to the tasks for advanced learners.
Advanced learners can use the tasks for beginners as "quick training" under time pressure and then tackle tasks for their level that increase up to the "master class".
But even less ambitious chess fans can enjoy the book, pick out interesting tasks and enjoy original and clever solutions. You don't always have to work towards improving your playing strength and success, you can also just enjoy chess!
The topics of the individual chapters cover a wide spectrum. Not only checkmate and material advantage tasks, but also tactics in the endgame, draws, a short excursion into chess history, the "classics", and also combinations from recent years await the reader.
With 620 exercises, almost all with solution diagrams that also make it possible to solve the exercises from paper and thus avoid annoying page turning, the exercise book offers something for everyone.
