About this product
 
Each chapter covers a theme, including back rank and 'smothered' mates, catching a king on the run, the 'Greek Gift' sacrifice, or typical checkmating patterns with the various chess pieces or combinations of pieces.

By progressing from simple to more complex examples--while at the same time enjoying a wealth of beautiful games from the most modern grandmaster practice--the reader will gain a heightened awareness of the individual powers of the pieces, from lowly pawn to mighty queen, and recognize the positional prerequisites for a successful checkmating attack.

Neil McDonald is a grandmaster and BCF coach. He is noted for his lucid style of both writing and teaching.
