Pandolfini's Endgame Course is a good place to start. I also like Chess Endings: Essential Knowledge by Averbach, as well as Practical Chess Endings by Chernev. I have the Silman book on endgames, which is also very good.
The Amateur's Mind book is more focused on strategy and planning rather than endgames.
Hi all,
Looking at my game, I seem to make most of my mistakes at the endgame... I simply don't know what to do...
I'm talking when there are few pieces left on the board and it's pretty tight in material or even positioning (ie: a bunch of pawns and a rook).
Maybe I don't set myself up well enough in the middle game? But then again, when we get to the endgame, its usually very close in material and positioning.
So I was looking at books to read and made some research... Silman's Complete endgame course? Seemed like it was recommended by many. I also want Silman Amateur mind book but its out of stock at my local book store.
Thanks again
