About this title

Synopsis

This is a book both of and about chess problems. Anyone who knows the moves of chess and is fascinated by what the pieces can do will enjoy studying the diagrams and working out how White, to move, can mate Black on his second move, whatever defence Black may play. At the same time the Introduction and the comments that appear with the solutions will provide an insight into the chess problem as an art form, by explaining such things as the problem's theme, the interplay of the pieces, the relationship between the moves, and those other aspects of the composition that give chess problems their particular appeal.
