    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.

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.
