Soft cover. Condition: VG+. See photos for condition details. Softcover, original 1972 publication and not a leader reprint. As with the other copies of this title that we have the interior binding is tight like the book was never used, but with this copy the condition grade was lowered because of scuffing and bumping to the ext…erior wraps. The exterior spine is still uncracked but the rear cover has corner bumps that show creases as does the front cover which also has a bit of curl to it. No handwriting other markings on any of the pages. At the time of this listing we had multiple copies of this title, each one has been listed separately with their own set of photos and descriptions. We acquired a large collection of chess books over 40 years ago, most of which were kept packed away until the time of this listing.

In taking the reader through over 150 instructive examples, taken mostly from his own games, Smyslov covers a very broad range of positions - and provides an excellent overall insight into the endgame as a… whole. Unlike standard endgame manuals, which concentrate purely on the most basic and technical positions, this book has numerous examples with many pieces on the board - the type of endgame you are in fact most likely to reach. By learning from Smyslov's impeccable technique, readers will improve their own endgame ability - and results! The endgame is a subtle phase of the game many ordinary players would like to improve. In taking the reader through over 150 instructive examples, taken mostly from his own games, Smyslov covers a very broad range of positions - and provides an excellent overall insight into the endgame as a whole. Unlike standard endgame manuals, which concetrate purely on the most basic and technical positions, this book has numerous examples with many pieces on the board - the type of endgame you are in fact most likely to reach. By learning from Smyslov's impeccable technique, readers will improve their own endgame abilities - and results! Grandmaster Vasily Smyslov is renowned for his artistic mastery of the endgame, and his 1957 World Championship victory over Botvinnik can be largely attributed to his unique gifts in this aspect of the game. The winner of innumerable first prizes in international tournaments, Smyslov became, at 61, the oldest player ever to qualify for the World Championship Candidates Matches. Now in his mid-seventies, he still participates constantly in international events - with remarkable success. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
