How to compose, solve & enjoy mate in two Chess problems

The mate in two chess problems is the most popular category of problems because they can be solved by nearly everybody, simply through the process of elimination. That, however, does not mean that they are easy to solve, are not artistic, elegant, or even outright brilliant.
In this work by the renowned writer, editor, and chess problem composer, B. G. Laws (1861-1931) goes over the details involved in composing two-move chess problems, both from practical and aesthetical perspectives, and for all the details that go into making a chess problem work.
In addition to the detailed discussion of chess problems, there is a section with problems by many of the leading composers of his time.
In this new edition, FIDE Master Carsten Hansenthoroughly reanalyzed all of the compositions and analyses and made the material accessible to modern readers and fans of chess problems.
