    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.

Throughout this period Blackburne remained a tough and dangerous opponent, and yet - more so than most players - he knew how to have fun at chess. Heam to tell stories, and would be happily banter with the crowds who flocked to his displays of simultaneous or blindfold prowess. That spirit of good-natured humor is evident all through the book before us. Edited by J.Lowenthal, To which is prefixed by G.Medley A magnificent tournament collection - 538 pages!
