Editorial Reviews
From Amazon.com
This is the second in Seirawan's four volumes, taking the reader from the very basics of chess through appreciation of advanced play. He does a remarkable job of discussing tactics that usually appear only in books for advanced players and communicating them to anyone with a grasp of playing fundamentals. The first part of the book deals with basic tactics and how they can be used individually and in combination. In the second part, Seirawan introduces some of the great chess tacticians and their games, further illustrating tactics as they work out in real-life play.

A fascinating and enlightening introduction to chess tactics, from the USA's #1-ranked chess player. As compelling, instructive, and fun for aspiring chess players as it is for more advanced players. Lively instruction and scores of revealing examples on crucial tactical maneuvers, plus more than 200 diagrammed positions, analysis of the plays of the game's greatest tacticians, and more.
