This used book in good condition is a revived classic from Averbakh’s renowned series, making it an essential resource for serious chess enthusiasts aiming to elevate their strategic endgame play. ## Description Used Book in Good Condition Review: Most complete explanation of king and pawn endings - The study of king and pawn endings teaches you accurate calculation. Also, the evaluation of pawn endings that arise from trades tells you if the simplification is in your favor or not, so they are very practical and worth the work. All good endgame books (I like the classic Dvoretsky's Endgame Manual ), have a good chapter on pawn endings. There is even the nice book by Muller: Secrets of Pawn Endings , covering just pawn endings. But I found both of these books have fewer examples and few explanations than this book. If you really want to see all kinds of pawn endings and how to do the calculation this is the book. I use Dvoretsky as my main endgame textbook, and use Muller when I want a quick understanding of a class of pawn positions, but Averbakh is where you go when you want to see a comprehensive view - just like the name suggests. As an aside, I have several different ISHI Press books, and some have better production quality than others - but this one is very good! The diagrams are very easy to read and it is great that someone has brought this series back into press. Review: The definite reference book! - Cheaply reprint of a very important reference work in chess ending literature! If u can afford, plz try to get the original Pergamon ones (or the “Batsford 7” + the Pergamon vol 5, Rook Endings). ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,838,086 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,090 in Russian & Soviet Literature (Books) #2,245 in Board Games (Books) #2,938 in Chess (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 15 Reviews | ## Images ![Comprehensive Chess Endings Volume 4 Pawn Endings - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71k3pJ5XnKL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Most complete explanation of king and pawn endings *by A***R on March 1, 2014* The study of king and pawn endings teaches you accurate calculation.
