    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.

    Как можно соединить в одной книге стремительность и дотошность, увлекательность для гроссмейстера и занимательность для любителя или даже профана; лиричность и объективность? Можно, вообще-то, и по-разному. Но в данном случае это следствие самой личности автора. Гарри Каспаров, тринадцатый чемпион мира по шахматам. Человек кипящий и порывистый, жесткий и целеустремленный, увлекающийся и политический человек. В сотрудничестве с Дмитрием Плисецким он воспроизводит историю шахматного чемпионства - в этом, первом томе – от Стейница до Алехина. Уже в каком-то "наполеоновском" предисловии Каспаров сразу высвечивает несколько важнейших моментов: всего 14 человек за 117 лет были сильнейшими за доской. Это раз И два: все чемпионы, да и их предшественники – дофидешные великие шахматисты были теснейше связаны с ценностями того общества, в котором жили и творили… Так Каспаров распахивает дверь книги и сразу, уже на пороге ясные, рациональные характеристики всех четырнадцати чемпионов. Включая себя, что важно, и без кокетливой скромности Каспаров пишет "Я" и трезво ставит себя в контекст эпохи и игры. Скажу шепотом: "мы, со многими из вас играем в шахматы на уровне детского сада. И буквы, цифры и позиции для нас китайская грамота. Но почитаем комментарии Каспаров к партиям, которые настолько широким радиусом освещают мир вокруг доски, не отвлекаясь ни на секунду от сути происходящего, что мы невольно втягиваемся во вселенную черно-белых фигур и черно-белых клеток". Но и комментирует Каспаров не только сам. О каждом чемпионе – будто интервью дают – говорят в книге все другие, что физически могли знать о нем. Итак, Гарри Каспаров Мои великие предшественники, т.1, "От Стейница до Алехина". Рипол Классик, Москва 2003. А томов будет еще два.
