## Description

Chess Fundamentals [Capablanca, Jose] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Chess Fundamentals

Review: A well written guide to mastering the game of a lifetime - This is not the book you're looking for if you've never played a single game of chess in your life but are interested in becoming a player of the timeless game. There are other books for that, which will guide you through learning the fundamentals. This IS, however, the book you need once you've graduated beyond that introductory level, when you have an understanding of how the game works. This IS the book you need to help unlock the mystery of what chess is, how to analyze the game, and how to grow as a player while you gain experience and a deeper understanding of what's happening on the board in front of you. This book superbly walks you through the game, in both overall and subtle ways. This book presents you with various setups, problems, solutions, and teaches you strategies that will help strengthen your abilities. Each chapter of the book covers different topics, from the strengths and weaknesses of each piece, to how your pieces can and should work together as one coherent team, to building and maintaining a solid defense while running an effective offense, to how your strategies ought to change as the midgame graduates to the endgame. Not only is each individual topic illustrated by example and a step-by-step explanation of what's happening in each move, but an entire section of the book is dedicated to descriptions of actual games to highlight the concepts introduced in this book, so you can see for yourself how the lessons taught here translate into real-life application. I very highly recommend this book for anyone who's looking to improve their chess abilities. This is a book worth reading, worth studying, and worth returning to time and time again to help you internalize strategies that will prove invaluable as you gain practice and experience.
Review: An excellent chess resource from one of the best all-time masters of the game... - This is NOT a beginner book IMO. I got it due to it being considered one of the best books written on chess principles. While I DO think it an amazing book so far (only 25% the way through it), Capablanca sometimes skips steps and it does challenge those trying to review game positions and alternate moves to mate. Still a worthy addition to anyone's chess library!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ This book is the bible in Chess
*by K***Z on November 16, 2024*

What I like is that is written in simple language, so anyone can understand it. Besides, this book covers all the stages of a chess match. It is ideal for a beginner who wants to learn how to win.
