Former world champion Jose Capablanca's introduction to chess, available for the first time in English in algebraic notation, is an ideal first chess book for players of all ages. In systematic fashion, Capablanca lucidly explains the rules and basic principles of this fascinating game, and illustrates these with a wide range of practical examples. Topics covered include: the game, the pieces, their moves and object; improving your game; elementary opening principles and much more. After capturing the world championship in 1921, Capablanca was for a time regarded as practically invincible. Although he surprisingly lost his title to in 1927, Capablanca remained a leading player until his death in New York in 1942. (5 11/16' X 8 1/4', 149 pages, illustrations)

Jos+ Raoul Capablanca (1888-1942) was the World Chess Champion from 1921-1927. He is considered by many to be the finest natural players of all time--he lost only one game between 1914 and 1924. A member of the Chess Hall of Fame, he is honored by an annual tournament held in his name in Havana, Cuba, his home country.

Although originally written as an introduction to chess - and for which it is still quite useful - it also is an opportunity for intermediate players to read the great Capablanca's annotations to twelve games he played against some of the strongest players ever known. We spend a lot of time studying chess books by modern masters and grandmasters and neglect the ideas of a chessplayer regarded for a time as practically invincible. An inexpensive, interesting primer that will repay study for players like myself (ELO 2023) and lesser rated.

Without question, this is the one book for a beginner to get. The book not only is written by what some consider to be the greatest chess player ever, it offers a ton of excellent advice. Capablanca shows what to do in the opening, middlegame and endgame. The end of the book offers his best games for instructional purposes. The best part of the book is his excellent advice and honesty. He does not hide knowledge from the reader. He is open and candid about everything. For example, some have wondered how Capablanca became so good. The answer is in this book. He writes that one should play over the games and examples in the book, and think of similar positions himself and keep going over this again and again. This is the "secret" to Capablancas success as he writes in the book;practice, practice and more practice. That is the key to chess wizadry. This book is excellent because it teaches the truth about chess mastery. It takes the reader from begginner to chess master and beyond. A great, great book.

That pretty sums this book up.I have found this book to be easy to follow as well as very insightful. Capablanca was a world class chess champion, but his terminology for this work is far from aloof. It is down to earth and to the point.He goes over rules, opening moves, middle game and ending. His points on strategy are priceless. I highly recommend this book to any beginner; it will improve your game - fast!

They called him the "chess machine." It's said (don't know if it's true) that he was never checkmated. This is doubtless because he always resigned when he saw it coming! Ha! A smooth operator who was appointed Cuba's Goodwill Ambassador. This book was published 14 years after his previous effort, "Chess Fundamentals," which is still considered a masterwork. advantage attack average player B X B B X Kt B X P Black King Black pieces Black plays Black Q Black to move Black to play Black's move Black's position defence end game exchange expert force International Masters Tournament isolated J.

Capablanca goes into intimate detail with his thorough, yet easy-to-follow explanation to chess, including tips on improving your game and general chess guidelines. Perfect for those just getting started, it also features diagrams of actual positions reached in tournament games by world-class chess players. A must have!
