As the second volume in the Chess in Miniature series, it focuses on miniature chess games and the patterns that lead to quick, decisive results.
What this book covers
David LeMoir continues the journey through the world of short games, exploring the ideas behind the best miniatures. The book looks at topics such as choosing the right opening, taking advantage of an opponent’s greed, classic sacrifices and more advanced calculation of variations. It is both a collection of striking examples and a practical guide to how winning games are built.
Carefully selected examples and LeMoir’s commentary help make the mechanics of fast finishes easier to understand. That makes this a useful read for players who want to sharpen their tactical instincts, as well as for anyone looking for fresh ideas in openings and combinations that create an early edge.
