Deepen your knowledge of rook endings
Rook endings are the most common in chess praxis. They are rich in subtleties and hidden tactics that can alter the outcome of the game by the tiniest margin of error. To navigate them is all but easy. But with Grandmaster John Nunn by your side you will always know
what is truly going on in Rook endings.
GM Nunn is a former World Championship Candidate, three-time World Chess problem-solving Champion and an endgame authority. In
Nunn's Chess Endings Vol.1 he featured everything but Rook endgames and the size of Vol.2 shows why. This course covers pure Rook endgames plus Rook vs. Pawns and Rook vs. Minor pieces and almost every possible correlation of forces.
"All rook endings are drawn".
