GM TRAINING CAMP 1 - CALCULATION! HC

This Grandmaster Training Camp 1 - Calculation! is an English-language hardcover chess training book by Sam Shankland, built around 300 calculation exercises and the thinking process of a top grandmaster in difficult positions.

What the book covers

This is the print edition of Sam Shankland’s Chessable course, carefully edited and organised by Quality Chess. The material is divided into six practical sections: tactics, candidates, combinations, endgames, defence and deep calculation. That makes it more than a simple tactics workbook, because it trains the full process of analysing a position.

Another major strength is the author’s commentary. You are not just given the answers; you can compare your own thinking with Shankland’s analysis and see what he noticed, what he missed and how he judged the critical moments. That makes the book well suited to self-study, calculation practice and work on decision-making at the board.

Who it is for

Grandmaster Training Camp 1 - Calculation! is aimed at ambitious club players, but it is also demanding enough for advanced chess players. If you want focused training in calculation, analysis and solving complex positions, this title gives you the chance to work through material used by one of the world’s leading grandmasters.
