CHESS IN A NUTSHELL

Intended to provide ""the minimum of information and counsel you need to play a fair game with confidence and enjoyment"" this is a beginner's book --- from a definition of the board and the pieces, to the earliest moves, to the basic procedures of the opening play, the middle game, the end game. Diagrams illustrate and initiate the novice who would familiarize himself with the fundamental procedures and practise situations, and who will then be ready to go on with any one of Reinfeld's some thirty odd books on this game in print at a more advanced level. Reliable.
