Review:
In another review, I said that Essential Chess Endings by GM James Howell is the best endgame book on what could be termed "textbook" endgames: King and Pawn, Rook endings from Rook vs. Pawn through Rook and Pawn (with several pawns on both sides), minor piece endings, queen endings, etc. Howell explains the ba ...

Attack and Defence: The Fifth and Final Session from the World-Famous Chess School.The book you have before you is the fifth and final volume in the series 'School for Budding Chess Champions', based on material from the DvoretskylYusupov school for gifted young chess players.

Five years on, I am proud to be able to say that eight of our students have become grandmasters, some of them very strong ones enjoying world fame. Here are their names: Alexei Alexandrov, Inna Gaponenko, Vasily Emelin, Vadim Zv ... Read more »
