Excellent Chess Strategy Book!
This is a great book for a semi-beginner! I loved the brief history of the game, and the easy-to-understand descriptions and diagrams. The basics of the game and strategies were well written. There were lots of things I had never heard of as a casual player and I can hardly wait to implement them!

A few nuggets
Had a few nuggets in it, on Tactics and Forks. But enough to beat "anyone"? Not really.

Learn new tricks in chess with this book!
I ordered this for my son who loves chess. It taught him some great, secret strategies to use against his Uncle who’s a pro and plays in leagues! He’s even beat him in a couple rounds using some of the tips and tricks from the book! He thinks he’s so cool now, teaching his uncle new techniques to try in his tournaments! Recommend for the serious chess players!

Complicated
It was a good book It was just hard to understand how it was written It wasn't meant for me and I have a good understanding so I mean I learned a little bit from it but for the most part it earned its three stars

Helped A lot.
Easy to understand. My Chess game improved a lot after reading the book. Some of the illustrations and examples.were a little hard to follow, but overall, this book is worth the money in my opinion.

Well edited book, fake title.
The book arrive well, with no damages or details and it’s legible. But, unfortunately, it’s just another introduction to chess. It’s not a concise introduction. There’s nothing useful about openings, middle games or endgames, nor tactics, strategy or analysis of legendary games. It’s just “this is chess, the pieces moves like this, you win if you checkmate your opponent”. And that’s all.
