From the Publisher
The opening primer for the complete novice
It offers clear, simple advice on how to start a game of chess, playing as either White or Black. It is a book to be read, not studied.
When both sides are locked in combat it is easy to find plans. But at the beginning, signposts are few. Why move one man instead of another? First Moves will help you make the right decisions, improve your game and get you thinking straight.
The book assumes no more than a knowledge of the rules of chess. It ends where other books begin.
David Pritchard is the author of the standard beginner's chess books ‘The Right Way to Play Chess' and ‘Begin Chess', whose combined sales in the English language exceed half a million copies.
