Description: This chess book is in very good condition. It has a cover price of $21.95. It was printed by New In Chess. The good news about endgames is:·there are relatively few endings you should know by heart·once you know these endings, that's it. Your knowledge never goes out of date!The bad news is that, all the same, the endgame technique of most players is deficient. Modern time-controls make matters worse: there is simply not enough time to delve deep into the position.Jesus de la Vila debunks the myth that endgame theory is complex, and he teaches you to steer the game into a position you are familiar with.This book contains only those endgames that:·show up most frequently·are easy to learn·contain ideas that are useful in more difficult positionsYour performance will improve dramatically because this book brings you:·simple rules·detailed and lively explanations·many diagrams·clear summaries of the most important themes·dozens of tests Contents: IntroductionBasic endingsBasic testKnight vs. PawnQueen vs. PawnRook vs. PawnRook vs. 2 PawnsSame-coloured bishops: Bishop + Pawn vs. BishopBishop vs. Knight: one pawn on the boardOpposite-coloured bishops: Bishop + 2 pawns vs. BishopRook + Pawn vs. RookRook + 2 pawns vs. RookPawn endingsOther material relationsFinal TestAppendixBibliography Please check out my store for select categories.
