    Fine

    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.

    Таллин, 1950 год. Эстонское государственное издательство. Настоящая книга посвящена матч-турниру 1948 года, давшему первого советского чемпиона мира — Михаила Ботвинника. Основное содержание книги — это детальный анализ пятидесяти партий, сыгранных в этом соревновании. Подробные примечания к партиям написаны для самого широкого круга квалифицированных шахматистов, причем особенное внимание обращено на популярность изложения и на выявление в партиях важнейших переломных моментов. Критика допущенных участниками ошибок может показаться местами слишком суровой, однако она является плодом тщательного анализа и должна принести пользу шахматистам, которые захотят сделать нужные им теоретические и практические выводы из партий матч-турнира. При разборе дебютов особое внимание уделено разъяснению основных идей, характеризующих различные системы дебютного развития, что облегчает понимание и последующей фазы партии — мительшпиля. Равным образом и в мительшпиле автор стремился по возможности избегать сухого перечня вариантов, заменяя их разъяснением характерных идей, таящихся в тех или иных позициях, что, несомненно, облегчает усвоение материала и повышает его поучительность. В эндшпилях, правда немногочисленных, правильный, как мне казалось, план игры обычно разъясняется заранее, — до того, как приводится фактическое продолжение в партии, — чтобы дать читателю возможность сравнить события в партии с другими путями, по которым могла или должна была бы развиваться игра.
