Book Description:

A chessplayer must continually be alert to tactics, which effectively decide the outcome of all chess games. Part one of this book
introduces you to the various tactical themes such as forks, double attacks, pins, skewers, line opening and clearing, deflections,
and destroying the guard, explaining them with practical examples from modern chess play. Part two goes one step further, showing
you how to discover combinations and also how to instigate them - guided by the specific features of the position. Tests are then
given to enable you to practise your new-found tactical awareness. A self-instructor that will not only enable you to deliver
telling tactical blows but also to side-step threats coming your way. For Club and tournament players.
