SynopsisMake the first move with National Master Bruce Pandolfini--America's foremost chess coach and game strategist for Netflix's The Queen's Gambit --in this accessible guide for beginning chess players. Pandolfini has taught the game of chess to hundreds of players of all ages and levels and this is his prized collection of lessons for newcomers. What makes this book different from others of its kind is its simplicity. Every problem can be answered in one move, and no problem requires more than ten pieces on the board. The most common tactical themes are featured, including forks, pins, skewers, underminings, x-rays, and traps--giving the novice a well-rounded introduction to the game.
