Yes, they have what they call SHORT and SWEET that gives some basics of certain openings and things but you have to go through the list of materials they have to find them but they are there. Also, try YouTube as there is free stuff on there. I am not as familiar with them thoug. Also, I really love the gingerman who has his own site. I love his teachings.

I had my chess books titles I focused on. But I spent at least 3 hours read and play each and every day.  It takes true passion and time to be 2000 in my case only online. I never had a chess coach.

I'd say there's around 20 for pedestrians vs. cyclists, 15+ for speeling errors, at least 30 for Harry Potter+Star wars stuff, and ... more for other things I can't even name right now.

I just found this video review of the book I have the highest regard for -- the video review of the book I highly recommend is:  'GM Kraai talks about Svetozar Gligoric's I Play Against Pieces'

See what you think...
