This work set forth for players at all levels a marvelous aspect of chess: artistic composition, specifically the composition of the endgame study. Long popular in Western Europe, the USSR and South America, chess art has for the past century been unjustly ignored in the United States, although there have been a number of very gifted American composers. Walter Korn sets the record straight and opens up a whole new area of enjoyment for chess enthusiasts. Condition: Jacket crease at front cover heal, chipped and creased at edges else a very good copy in a good jacket.
