100 Easy Checkmates

With no chess notation, this is a great book for beginning players, especially children. These easy one and two-move checkmates are not only fun, but also great training tools. Set up for quick learning, the author presents one hundred basic mating situations in large-sized, easy-to-understand diagrams. You are asked to solve the mate, and then shown how to solve the problem using plain words. Both challenging and fun, this practical guide is great for all beginning players. 144 pages
