Tactical turns based on mating ideas against the enemy king decide a large number of chess games, so it is extremely important to be able to recognize these opportunities when they arise. Joe Gallagher has compiled 365 mating problems to help you improve your tactical skills!

In every position, it is your job to find a way to force a clear win. The theme is always checkmate: either the king must die, or he can only be saved at the cost of decisive material losses. Joe Gallagher is ideally qualified to write about this topic. Since the beginning of his career, he has been considered a fearsome opponent, particularly for his attacking skills and tactical skill.

Complete solutions are given. All positions have been carefully checked for alternative solutions and the correctness of the original solution. The problems, most of which have never been published before, are divided into categories that start with easier positions and become increasingly difficult.
