    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.

    The vast majority of opening guides are written for adult readers. This book is also devoted to the theory but it is junior. The structure of the book is simple and attractive: openings are examined using examples from actual games, each of which is presented in the form of a lesson with its own name. Several such lessons form an opening theme, and the examination of each theme concludes with exercises. In each opening, attention is drawn to its characteristic tactical and strategic ideas of combinations for independent solution strictly corresponds to the opening theme. Written in clear and easy language, the book is furnished with a large number of diagrams. Colored explanatory arrows on the diagrams and the selection of individual pages with a colored background make the book easier to understand. Regular work solve two problems: deepen the student's knowledge and develop his tactical vision, thus improving his skill and results.

    An excellent teaching aid can serve as the author’s selected games. They are arranged on a thematic basis, and detailed notes to them, as rightly pointed out by P. A. Romanovsky, reveal the “internal meaning of the processes of struggle”. The book includes the author’s games with Alekhine, Botvinnik, Kotov, Levenfish, Bondarevsky, Averbakh and many other major masters. The class of the game in these games is not always the same, but at an invariably high level are deep and informative notes. The autobiography of P. A. Romanovsky is instructive and interesting. It contains curious sketches of pre-revolutionary chess life, a description of the first steps in the development of Soviet chess culture. The author recalls some statements by Alekhine, episodes of various competitions. The main thing, of course, in the autobiography is the story about the formation of the chess view of the Russian master, his creative position now, after almost half a century of service to chess art. There is no doubt that readers with interest and benefit for themselves will become acquainted with the work of the oldest master.
