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”.

    Gift Edition, coated paper. "Fight and search, find and never give up!" - these famous words can be safely considered the motto of the author of the book. Yuri Alexandrovich Zharkov - a man of amazing willpower and fortitude. He managed, having lost sight, to realize himself in chess. However, a collection of his tasks is not at all a tribute to the courage of the author. The book is valuable and interesting in the first place because many of Zharkov’s works can be safely added to the category of the undoubted creative successes of the Samara chess composer.
