THE POLGAR WAY TO BETTER CHESS!
Learn Chess the Right Way is a five-volume chess puzzle book series aimed at the novice, beginner and intermediate level player, using the unique methods of the award-winning coach and former world champion Susan Polgar.
It introduces the most important checkmate and material-winning tactics, as well as defensive techniques to the new chess player. Each of the five volumes will consist of over 500 puzzles.
The first in the series covering checkmates:
Learn Chess the Right Way - Book 1: Must-know Checkmates.
The second covers every possible way to win material:
Learn Chess the Right Way - Book 2: Winning Material.
The third will help you improve your defensive technique:
Learn Chess the Right Way - Book 3: Mastering Defensive Technique.
The fourth volume is all about sacrifices:
Learn Chess the Right Way - Book 4: Sacrifice to Win!
The final volume of the five-part series is built on the knowledge acquired in the previous four books. In the first part, the focus is on a new theme: quiet moves. Unlike the forceful lines that were shown in the previous volumes, here you have to find more delicate and subtle solutions. Finally, in the second half, you will find the "Grand Test", where you will be able to practice with real game-like situations.
With over 40 years of experience as a world-class player and coach, international grandmaster Susan Polgar has developed the most effective way to help young players and beginners -
