100 challenging puzzles, many taken from real games between the great masters (including combinations overlooked by the players themselves at the time). It's also good that, unlike some chess puzzle books, the examples presented here by Paul Lamford are not simply of the "mate in two" variety - 3 and 4 move variations are included, which genuinely makes this book suitable for more skilled players. Great for assisting with development of simple analysis skills, and what a great price!!

I am half way thro' and enjoying the book alot. I like the choice of
and layout. Answers on following page is much better than at end. Also
the mix of topics is fine, not just find the mate types but a whole range.
Glad it's got the co-ordinates on diagram margins (not all have).
A fine effort and it's improved my game alot. A neat read.
