About this product

Product Information

A one-of-a-kind masterclass in chess from the greatest player of all time. Learn how to play chess the Bobby Fischer way with the fastest, most efficient, most enjoyable method ever devised. Whether you're just learning the game or looking for more complex strategies, these practice problems and exercises will help you master the art of the checkmate. This book teaches through a programmed learning method: It asks you a question. If you give the right answer, it goes on to the next question. If you give the wrong answer, it explains why the answer is wrong and asks you to go back and try again. Thanks to the book's unique formatting, you will work through the exercises on the right-hand side, with the correct answer hidden on the next page. The left-hand pages are intentionally printed upside-down; after reaching the last page, simply turn the book upside-down and work your way back. When you finish, not only will you be a much better chess player, you may even be able to beat Bobby Fischer at his own game!

  • Amazing book, excellent quality

    I was told by our chess tutor that this book probably wouldn’t be in print anymore. I thought I’d probably find it second hand on eBay. So when I found this, brand new, I was so excited. The dispatch was prompt and the quality is perfect. Highly recommend.

  • Great intro book

    Very well presented book, not sure if Bobby pioneered the style of having the second half of the book upside down so you would not see the answers to the puzzles but it works very well indeed. Other than that it is a good entry level book for recognising patterns and combinations.

  • The best first chess book

    I have the great honour to teach my gifted 10yrs old grandson chess. As a Birthday present I looked for exactly this excellent first chess book. I'm happy I found it on Ebay for a great price. On other places it's far more expensive with long delivery times. This chess book not only explains the rules of chess which are quite simple. It's the specific thinking in depth, thinking ahead (politicians hear hear!) the analysing of the position, tactics and strategy which counts. This book provides that all.

  • Good book and good service too

    Fascinating book that's stood the test of time. Ideal for the absolute beginner who doesn't even know what the pieces are through to the more advanced players.

  • Great introduction to chess

    Simple, effective introduction to Chess for beginners. You don't need to understand chess notation like many other chess books, this page is all about diagrams. It positively encourages you to draw your own arrows to help. Very simple challenge/answer system with each answer hidden behind a page turn.
