Soft cover. Condition: Fine. The Stinking Bishops experiment probes the 'why' and the 'how' of a pair of related maximum length wins for the 7-man endgame rook, bishop and pawn vs rook and bishop. Roycroft pulls off a very neat trick in Stinking Bishops. He takes the arcane moves given by the tablebase and goes some distance in discerning the hidden logic beneath them. Each position is first presented with a raw list of moves that lead to the forced win, and then Roycroft investigates dozens of the key moves and positions. His notes are witty and wordy, often addressed to an imagined interlocutor, and they effectively assist the reader in grasping the necessity of certain moves as White marches to victory. In his foreword to the book, Daniel Naroditsky congratulates Roycroft for his ability to explain the esoteric moves of the computer in very human ways, saying that he was unable to put the book down until he d finished it! Not all of us are endgame columnists, of course, but Stinking Bishops really is a delightful romp through two (sometimes mind-numbingly complex) endings. This was a book written for love of the game, and it will perhaps with the help of this review find its way into the hands of those who will appreciate its many, many charms. Like new condition.
