Item description from seller

The Game of Kings is Now at your Fingertips Join the Casual Chess Revolution Today You want to learn the game of Kings, Generals, Conquerors, and IntellectualsBut learning Chess on your own isn't easy.Many Chess books for beginners overload you with information about openings, tactics, forks, history, notation, and lot of other things beginners don't need to know.That might work for some people. But in this highly anticipated prequel to the Conquer your Friends series, I'm going to SHOW you how you can play the game of Chess AND WIN in a heinously short amount of time. Chess for Beginners (Yeah, Real Beginners)Hi, my name is Maxen Tarafa, and I'm a Skill Artist. Most teachers struggle to show beginners how to play Chess because they forget what it's like to start from the beginning. I specialize in working with beginners and casual players, and now I've broken down the specific needs of the (absolute) beginner. You see, I believe Chess belongs to regular people who enjoy playing Chess with their friends or at home, not in the hands of experts who use incomprehensible terminology and notation. After working with several beginners, I realized their greatest struggle is not just remembering how the pieces move, but seeing the board beyond where the pieces physically sit. I'm going to show you how to play Chess using step-by-step images with arrows and interactive exercises, and I'm going show you how to start winning in a heinously short amount of time. Learn or Teach - Great for Adults, Kids, and Teens Who is this book for? Perhaps, you've never played Chess but you've always wanted to learn.Or maybe, you've already learned how to move the pieces, but you need an easy, straight-forward refresher.
