The titles by Renaud and Kahn and by Chandler are terrific sources on mating patterns so are the Koltanowski and Finkelstein books, which are overlooked. Different people learn better from different writers.ģ. But I encourage you to check them out and make comparisons. Of course those books fill a somewhat similar niche to this site for those who are reading this, they are my competition.
(The first two may be hard to find, but are worth the trouble.) Many of the others are excellent, too, and I don't mean to slight any of them by mentioning these three. Among books that offer instruction in words, I suggest Chernev and Reinfeld's Winning Chess, Ault's The Chess Tutor, and Seirawan and Silman's Winning Chess Tactics. The books by Reinfeld and Hays probably are the best collections of positions to solve if you are looking for practice (a number of positions from those books are discussed here) Livshitz and Gillam also are excellent for that purpose, as is the book by Lein and Archangelsky.Ģ. Some positions also have appeared in Shelby Lyman’s chess column in the Boston Globe or in Riga’s Chess magazine.ġ.

To find the positions needed for the purpose-roughly 1,200 in all-I drew on just about every source I could find. One of the goals of this project is to take every problem that commonly arises in tactical play and illustrate its handling with a half dozen or so progressive illustrations. To get the most benefit you'll want to cover up those portions with something like an index card. One thing I did not particularly like was that the move list was partially complete for each problem, so you could infer the previous move's answer without calculating. This would be a great book for someone that is literally *new* to chess and looking for their first tactics book after having learned how the pieces move and the game's associated rules. I'm going through Heisman's list to hopefully fill any holes in my game that maybe I missed, fundamentally. For my level, the entire book was super easy - approximately 2-5 second solve time for each problem. One thing I did not particularly like was th A tactics book recommended for beginners by NM Dan Heisman. A tactics book recommended for beginners by NM Dan Heisman.
