Korn Walter. American Chess Art: 250 Portraits Of Endgame Study

New York: Pitman Publishing, 1975. - 384 p. - ISBN: 0-273-07215-3.
This work set forth for players at all levels a marvelous aspect of chess: artistic composition, specifically the composition of the endgame study. Long popular in Western Europe, the USSR and South America, chess art has for the past century been unjustly ignored in the United States, although there have been a number of very gifted American composers. Walter Korn sets the record straight and opens up a whole new area of enjoyment for chess enthusiasts.
