    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.

    New work of the honored trainer of Belarus, the author of the classic works `` Endgame Strategy '' and `` Endgame Contours '', & ndash; about understanding modern play in a complex game endgame. From the foreword of the 14th world champion Vladimir Kramnik: “In my youth, when I was just starting to study chess, one of the, one might say, 'bibles'. on the game endings was a book by the same author, Endgame Strategy. She was considered `` canonical '', all the coaches in the Soviet Union recommended to their students: `` Read Shereshevsky! '' I myself have carefully studied this book, and I really liked it. I heard that Magnus Carlsen also liked her & ndash; of course, many years later. The book `` With youth '' into the endgame '' continues the same line, but it would certainly be unfair to call it 'second edition' & ndash; there are a lot of new things in it. And not just additional fresh examples (this two-volume book is probably 3-4 times larger than a Soviet paperback book), but also original concepts, new approaches to studying the endgame. ” The book is addressed primarily to young chess players, their coaches and parents, but will be useful to all chess lovers, regardless of age and qualifications.
