Endgame Tactics – New, Improved and Expanded Edition

Descripción

Endgame Tactics – New, Improved and Expanded Edition new and substantially expanded edition of a modern

chess classic. By chance, in 2013 publisher New In Chess discovered a previously unnoticed and unpublished

extra batch of endgame tactics collected by the legendary Dutch correspondence grandmaster Ger van

Perlo (1932-2010).

Endgame Tactics

More than 250 fresh examples have been added, making this fourth edition 25% BIGGER than its

predecessors.

For casual players and club players.

Why is it that most amateur chess players love opening and middlegame tactics but hate endgames? Why

do you usually look at only a couple of pages in any endgame theory book you see?

Tactics!
