From the series »Better Chess Series«

A collection of 372 chess positions for the player to practice winning material or execute checkmate.
The examples have been carefully chosen and graded to help the player improve their skill and sight of the board, even with relatively little prior experience.
Work from the diagrams or over the board. It will be fun either way. The answers are right below the diagrams to make it as easy as possible to check your work.
Suitable for new players who know little more than how the pieces move.
In all the positions in this book White is playing up the board and is to move.
On pages 3 to 71 White can win a black piece using any of the methods seen in Better Chess in this series.
On pages 72 to 96 White can force checkmate in two moves, often by a sacrifice. It is important that you learn to recognise these checkmating patterns as they occur in games more often than you would expect and players often overlook them!
This book is not a test of your chess. It is simply for you to enjoy the positions. If you spend any amount of time looking through them you will improve your chess whether you are trying to or not! Good reading.
