Finales de ajedrez - Paul Keres

This Chess Endgames - Paul Keres is a Polish-language chess book on one of the most important phases of the game, showing how to convert an earlier advantage into a full point when every move counts.

What the book covers

Rather than trying to catalogue every endgame position in theory, Paul Keres concentrates on the most important types of endgames. The result is a practical guide to the principles behind correct endgame play, not just a collection of analysed positions.

Keres also explains the ideas behind the moves, helping the reader develop better chess thinking, a clearer sense of plan and a more independent way of judging positions on the board. That makes the book useful both for studying familiar endgame patterns and for improving practical play.

Why it is worth reading

Chess Endgames is aimed at players who want to make better use of an advantage and avoid costly mistakes in the decisive stage of the game. It is a sensible choice for club players and for anyone who wants to organise their endgame knowledge and apply it more confidently at the board.

Paul Keres is the author of this Polish-language edition.
