José Raúl Capablanca y Graupera (19 November 1888 – 8 March 1942) was a Cuban chess player who was world chess champion from 1921 to 1927. One of the greatest players of all time, he was renowned for his exceptional endgame skill and speed of play. Due to his achievements in the chess world, mastery over the board and his relatively simple style of play he was nicknamed the "Human Chess Machine".
J.R. Capablanca was a World Chess Champion and one of the greatest players in chess history, yet he wrote very little about the game. "Chess Fundamentals, though normally for the beginning player, contains valuable insights that will benefit players at all levels of understanding, including masters. Capablanca explains:
-How to obtain and nurture a passed pawn
-How to get and keep the initiative
-Cardinal rules for rook and pawn endings
-How to attack using knight as the main force
-How to cut off enemy pieces
"Chess Fundamentals is one of the jewels of chess literature.
