    In the vast ocean of chess literature there are relatively few books about the endgame, and only a few of them can be considered true chess classics. And the most outstanding among the classics — Reuben Fine's book "Basic Chess Endings". Reuben Fine (1914−1993) was for a long time one of the best chess players in the world. As an author, Fine showed himself to be an excellent analyst who understood the full depth and peculiarities of the endgame. Having studied various types of standard positions, Fine established useful rules for practical play and proved himself to be an experienced teacher who, using skillfully chosen examples, was able to teach the reader all the necessary lessons and introduce him to the basic ideas of the endgame. Many generations of chess players in different countries of the world keep copies of “Basic Chess Endings”. For example, Mikhail Botvinnik considered Fine's work the most worthy of all that had ever been written on endgame theory.

    I present to the readers the first of the planned collections of minimal multi-pass tasks on the cooperative mat, in which the performing party has at its disposal only one pawn. If the compiler of the collection will see interest in their work, similar collections with a horse and an elephant will soon see the light, in volume are commensurable with this collection. There are fewer rook and queens tasks, therefore, it is planned to make the combined work. The book contains almost no small-figure (3 or 4 figures) problems due to the small strategic saturation of the game or in general its absence. Otherwise, the collection could be much larger, but it would hardly benefit from this in content.
