Choose from the double attack, the pin, the skewer, deflection, the dcor, x-rays, windmills and many more time-tested tactics. Using classic board situations arranged in chapters by tactical themes, Seirawan teaches you how to: Plan your entire game from the very first move Think ahead, step-by-step, anticipating every obstacle your opponent can throw your way Position yourself for the smashing combination and endgame you've always dreamed of Board positions from actual games played by history's great chess tacticians are provided throughout.
