Inhaltsangabe

More chess coaches in America recommend this book for their students than any other book. Written by one of the World's Strongest Grandmasters who was top contender for the World Chess Championship, “Chess the Easy Way” takes the player from the beginning moves of chess, rapidly advancing to the Expert Level. Long out of print, there have been more requests for this book than ALL OTHER CHESS BOOKS COMBINED. Be prepared for a quick ride to the top. Some say that a better title for this book would have been “Chess the Hard Way”, because Fine quickly takes the reader from the beginning level to advanced levels of play. Reuben Fine (1914-1993) was a top contender for the World Chess Championship. He tied for first in the Strongest Chess Tournament ever played, a tournament that was supposed to decide who would play a match for the World Chess Championship. The War intervened so Fine never got to play a match for the World Championship and he wrote this book instead.

Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor

This is the book most recommended by chess coaches for their students. It can perhaps be said that there are primarily four kinds of chess books. 1. Beginner's Books 2. Advance Strategy Books 3. Opening Books 4. Books of Historical Interest What makes "Chess the Easy Way" almost unique is that it spans the first two and touches on the third. It can be said that this book starts off the player at the beginning level and rapidly accelerates, reaching almost the expert level by the end. As a re-printer of out-of-print chess books, I have been absolutely bombarded by chess coaches with requests for a reprinting of this book. I get not only more requests for this book than any other book, but I get more requests for this book than ALL OTHER CHESS BOOKS COMBINED.
