Pitfalls & Swindles
How to set them and how to avoid them.
There is little doubt that we all have a spot of larceny in our hearts. It seems to manifest itself most clearly in our games. Take Chess, for example: to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat commands our administration; but if the snatching involves a little high-class flimflam, who will deny it gives us an extra thrill.
Chess, Traps Pitfalls and Swindles is a rich storehouse of Chess "crimes". Sometimes villain is thwarted: more often he gets away with his nefarious deeds. But, in either event, the tales, and their telling, will prove to be instructive and vastly entertaining.
