Best-selling author and ICCF International Master Victor Charushin continues his ground-breaking exploration of chess tactics in this second volume of "The Tactician's Handbook". His newest work is a remarkable study of pins - but not just any pin! Here we have double and triple pins, pins intersecting and counter-pinning, pins multiplied and compounded and pinned down in the crossfire until ... Combination Cross! This specialized tactic, often called the "cross-pin", is one of the most visually stunning patterns in chess, and certainly among the most effective. Now players of any category can master this important and often seen tactical method, sharpening skills in a manner both correct and enjoyable. IM Charushin's unique insight and highly personal style combine here to create an exquisite guidebook to the exciting world of Combination Cross.
