can show you how to put the tactics of the world’s chess legends to work for you?

In the first book in the series, Play Winning Chess, I discussed the history of chess and introduced the basic rules and strategies of the game.

Teaching chess to beginners is an exercise in creativity. The teacher can go about the task in myriad ways. Some teachers might explain the rules and how the pieces

move and then use the world’s great chess games, especially their own, as examples. Others might focus on how to play certain openings or how to checkmate.

Though all of these methods may eventually lead to an understanding of the basics, some methods produce quicker results than others.
