Summary: I bought this book for my 12 yr old & me
Comment: Everyone complains of not spending enough time with their children. We are constantly involved with electronic pursuits. For less than four dollars you can buy a passport to an hour of thoughtful pursuit and conversation with your child. Chess improves thought patterns and encourages long term thought. The book is easy to read, helpful, concise and you can buy the game of Chess on Amazon. Nuf said.

Summary: A great beginner book and a quick refresher for others
Comment: This is an excellent beginner's book as well as a quick refresher for intermediate players. Fred Wilson poses and answers 101 questions ranging from "4. Is there a special way the board should be placed?" and "26. How does the knight move?" to "73. What exactly throws off beginners in the endgame?"
The book is only 76 pages and, as a Dover publication, costs about a dollar. I give one of these away to every friend and acquaintance I teach chess to, and so far I've always been thanked for it. Of course, I also keep one for myself, to help me remember the important points of endgames and what terms like "fianchetto" mean. Fred Wilson covers a great range of beginning chess topics in a very small and inexpensive volume. There's no reason not to buy a copy or two.

Summary: The perfect primer for the complete beginner
Comment: If you are a scholastic chess coach I highly recommend that you by a stack of these and give them to your kids. At this price anyone can afford to get a good start at chess!
