Synopsis

The endgame is the final phase of a game of chess, in which very little material is left on the board and the weaknesses forced earlier in the game can be exploited. Theory, while not changing as rapidly as in the openings, is no less important, and many games are won or lost because one player knew the winning plan and the other didn't. This book of chess endings is the definitive single-volume endgame encyclopaedia. Every important type of ending is included, with detailed but clear explanations of the correct plans for both attacker and defender. It will be absolutely essential for all competitive players.
