Hello guys recently I started a YouTube Chess Channel called Chesstomax which I share general chess videos about certain topics. I recently shared a video about best chess books for players in beginner levels. I took those books as example

1. Chess Training for Budding Champions by Jesper Hall

2. Winning Chess Openings by Yasser Seirawan

3. Learn Chess Tactics by John Nunn and some other books

I would be glad if you could spend your few minutes and watch my video from the link below

and give your opinions and feedbacks on the books and video. Because chess.com is biggest chess community I am sure you guys could help me out. Thanks for your attention and goodbye happy.png
