Detailed Description...........

One of the most popular books on tactics and combinations ever released is now back in stock in a new third edition! It offers a selection of the most significant achievements made in chess competitions over 200 years. The new volume of the Anthology of Chess Combinations features several major changes introduced by the Chess Informant Editorial Board. The most notable change is that the third edition has been divided into two main parts featuring instructive and practical examples. As a foundation for the first part, the previous edition of the Anthology has been used with the original classification keys pertaining to fundamental tactical motifs.

The second part has been created to incorporate the elements of a workbook. More recent examples have been added and subdivided into three groups to maintain clear-cut structure. Each group has three difficulty levels without any classification keys, to make sure that the prospective solver cannot benefit from any hints. 

The third edition of the Anthology of Chess Combinations with 2,709 examples in 576 pages will help readers have a greater appreciation of the art of combinational chess and a fundamental understanding of how it can be achieved. 

Months, even years of enjoyment! Test your tactical ability by solving some of the greatest chess combinations in history!

Comments : This book is a necessity for any serious player. No words. Just problems and their solutions for one to work through.

Comments : If you're not good enough to calculate 15 to 40 moves in a position (with variations included) then, like me, you may find this book frustrating.
