Win at Chess - 2nd hand

The 300 practical chess situations that Fred Reinfeld has taken from actual tournament play and included in this book contain scores of traps, sacrifices, mates, winning combinations, and subtle exchanges that will help sharpen your chess eye and test your skills against the masters.

Starting with the simplest examples, the book allows you to progress at your own pace to complex and provocative positions. Brief notes accompanying each problem contain helpful hints, and at the end of each selection a table of solutions and alternative moves shows you how to evaluate your own attack. A simple grading system enables you to judge your progress through the course of the book.

The fact that these situations were taken from actual experts' play makes them of immediate practical use. They will not only help you get out of critical situations, but they will also help you formulate advance plans when no obvious moves are present, develop a stronger, more versatile game, and utilize your imagination more.
