Endgames with kings, bishops, knights, and pawns are generally
considered among the most complex and can seem quite bewildering to
improving players. This is hardly surprising given that even
Grandmasters have been known to struggle in some areas of these
endgames, with some examples resulting in embarrassing failure to
deliver elementary checkmates In this user-friendly book,
Grandmaster and notable endgame authority John Emms begins with the
absolute fundamentals of minor piece endings. This slowly but
surely arms readers with the essential knowledge and confidence to
move onto slightly trickier positions. Using examples from
practical play, Emms highlights the correct procedures as well as
the typical mistakes made by both attacker and defender. As is
normal with the famed Starting Out series, there are an abundance
of notes, tips, and warnings throughout the book to help improving
players. Starting Out: Minor Piece Endgames is perfect for those
who have previously honed their chess skills with the earlier books
