Chess book
This book i read over 10 years ago when i was in the chess club in middle school. I recently bought another copy for my now little nephew who wants to learn. The teaching strategy of this book is great for beginners or semi advanced players. Very easy to understand.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

upside down right side up
interesting way the book is designed, it is both upside down and right side up, not very impressed with Prof. Fishers ideal scenarios for chess moves, seems kinda elementary, Perhaps chess has come a long way since those days? hm.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

From the basics iinto applied strategies and endgame awareness
This is probably the easiest way to learn chess and learn to play it well. The book takes a moment to get used to because Bobby Fischer did not like the idea of flipping pages back and forth or breaking the book spine by folding it to read the opposite page. Instead he wrote the book entirely on the right side as if it were single sided. Then, halfway through, the book flips ovr and continues the same way back to the page that was on back of the first page, which is now the last page of the book. It is really quite logical, and his methods as displayed herein are even more logical. It will bring out the best in you if you actually work it from beginning to end. This is an interactive book, meant to be read with a board and pieces in front of you. In its absence, the illustrations cover it well, but you will learn faster and better by actually moving the pieces.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

One of the best books ever written on chess strategy.
The book is an excellent primer for novice chess players, but is also a great way for experienced players to sharpen their skills. The book sets up numerous chess challenges then asks players to determine the best moves. The following page has the best solution. It is a great skill developer.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Good simple chess book.
This book is a chess puzzle book, containing the basics in chess. It has examples of Fischer's chess games, but only superficially. For a book on Fischer's games, look elsewhere. This has the fundamentals for novice chess players.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

I don't regret
I personally am a little advance for this book. I bought the book just cause Bobby Fisher name was on it. One or two pages stood out but I was not too impressed. At $5 (I think?) I would buy it again and review it now and again. It's a nice piece to my library, so I highly recommend the book to novice players.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

A used copy may spoil the value of this book
The purpose of this book is to teach the reader how to make informed chess moves. However, the book had writing throughout the book, with all the correct answers written. This made the book useless, and as a result, I've purchased a new copy of the same book.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
