In a very readable book Gary Lane illustrates the most practical methods you might use to take out the enemy king."-British Chess Magazine. From the chapter entitled "Sacrifice!" comes this example sub-headed "The art of bluffing" Lane takes up the story: "How could I possibly resist the chance to give up my bishop to create such a fabulous attack? At such a crucial moment I should have taken a little longer to make sure it worked and looked around for an even better move.The newspapers generously awarded it two exclamation marks, but the truth is, I simply missed a clear-cut win." This is how the author makes it interesting while he teaches. 128 pages, figurine algebraic.
