Summary:
Chess
is 99%
tactics
. This celebrated observation is not only true for beginners, but
also
for
club
players
(Elo 1500 - 2000). If you want to win more games, nothing works better than training your combination skills. There are two types of books on
tactics
: those that introduce the
concepts
followed by some examples, and workbooks that contain lots of
exercises
. FIDE Master Frank Erwich has done both: he
explains
all
key
tactical ideas AND provides an enormous amount of
exercises
for each different theme. Erwich has created a complete
tactics
book for ambitious
club
and tournament
players
. He teaches you how to reach the next level of identifying weak spots in the position of your opponent, recognizing patterns of combinations, visualizing tricks and calculating effectively. Erwich has
also
included a new and important element: tests that will improve your defensive skills. 1001

is not a collection of freewheeling puzzles. It serves as a course text book, because only the most didactically productive
exercises
are featured. Every chapter starts with easy examples, but no worries: the level of difficulty will steadily increase.
