 Chess Books > Instructional: Novice Sort By:
 
We have tried to offer some guidelines to help you select Instructional books and software. The rating of a Novice player would be in the 1000-1400 range. It assumes that the moves and basic objective of the game is understood. Please note that these are only guidelines. Since assigning a specific category to many books and software programs is not an exact science, there are many that appear in more than one category. Should you have any questions, please feel free to give ChessCafe.com a call at 1-877-91-CHESS.
