Really good read- pretty easy to get through. Perhaps today with computers availible to alliow you to do drills the book is not as relevent. This said I feel that this is an excellent tool. I googled the book and found it to be selling for its list price $ 7.95 US so dont get ripped off by someone selling it as a collectors item.

I think it's definitely a good book for a beginner - really just working with diagrams, don't have to think about notation etc.

There are a few that have negative views - read some on amazon.com - i.e. it's not really written by Bobby Fischer, too simple etc.

But when I read it when I was getting back into chess years ago, I found it worth the time.

Slow at first, but it's a great book. Really opens your eyes if you are fairly new to chess.

One of my early books, when I began playing chess. The book mainly focus on the concept of back rank mates with at least 300 examples and the readers decided the moves.
