Chess, the "Royal Game". But what would the king be without his pawns? The smallest figure on the board is often overshadowed by the more glamorous queen, the rooks or the officers. For many chess players, however, the pawn is the "soul of the game of chess". This systematic chess book shows the possibilities of the pawn in the opening phase, the middle game and the chess endgame. Blockade, checkmate attack or conversion: with simple instructions, this guide helps to improve your playing strength.
