Publisher's Synopsis
Much like in life, in chess you will find that you gravitate towards certain ideas and strategies. Many such strategies are found in this book, and in some ways, this book is meant to give you a grander idea of the kind of player you want to be.
This guide is your first stepping stone toward growth as a player, covering tactics which can be used throughout the game and strategies in the opening, middle game, and endgame. It contains everything you need to start playing and win your first game.
Chess is a complicated game, filled with patterns which may, at first, seem like random movements. The goal of this illustrated guide is to make those patterns clearer, and it is directed towards first-time players and novices, both adults and kids.
