Simple Chess: New Algebraic Edition (Dover Chess)

<div><P>Written by a young Grand Master, this introduction to chess strategy is aimed primarily at players for whom a game plan is utterly enigmatic.

Newly converted into the current algebraic chess notation, this edition of <I>Simple Chess</I> offers a strategic weapon for players at every level of expertise.</div></P>
