If you’re craving top-to-bottom improvement in your chess, coupled with delightful instruction to enjoy with a warm cup of tea, then you’ll love
Queens of the Chess Board.
Inside,
Woman International Master Luciana Morales takes you back to the 1930s, when the pioneers of women’s chess were paving the road for future generations.
Morales is a chess queen in her own right. She won the
Pan-American Youth Chess Festival three times… clinched the Zonal Tournament 2.4 in São Paulo… and qualified for the
2004 Women’s World Championship.
She’s joined by
National Master Bryan Tillis — a multi-state chess champion turned best-selling Chessable author.
Together, they mined the archives of women’s chess and uncovered…
A Treasure Trove Of Hidden Gems
And Practical Lessons
Queens of the Chess Board features
66 masterful games and fragments by the first 5 women’s world chess champions.
Criminally underexplored in chess literature, these games renew the sense of wonder and discovery you’d miss from the all-too-familiar classics. All while raising your competence in just about every aspect of chess.
In the course, you will:
👑 Watch Vera Menchik convert tiny positional plusses into big wins, and take the names of top 100 players.
👑 Widen your arsenal of attacking techniques and aggressive piece maneuvers with Lyudmila Rudenko.
👑 Imitate not just the patient positional play of Elizaveta Bykova — but her precision in punishing inaccuracies, too.
👑 Join Olga Rubtsova’s hunt for the enemy king, then steamroll opponents with impressive centralization.
👑 And revisit Nona Gaprindashvili’s titanic battles against leading GMs from the Soviet Union, a future 5-time world champion, and her 14-year-old successor.
Beyond their fantastic games, you’ll also discover the real-life heroism of these chess queens.
Among many feats, they saved children from the Siege of Leningrad… helped heal the wounded during World War II… and survived the life-threatening pressure of international politics!
Next, Tillis will guide you through a
woodpecker-style tactics trainer to build your calculation and pattern recognition skills.
You’ll be given
200 warm-up exercises based on essential tactical themes…
Followed by chapters on checkmate, pin and skewers, discovered attack, and other essential patterns.
We’re confident that
Queens of the Chess Board will inform, inspire, and give your chess the all-around boost it needs. And we invite you to prove it yourself.
