    Fine

    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.

    С предисловием М.Ботвинника. По этому учебнику учились многие выдающиеся шахматисты. Книга содержит первоначальные сведения о шахматной игре, учение о дебютах. Особое место занимают главы, посвященные позиционной борьбе и проблемам шахматной эстетики. М. Ботвинник об учебнике Э. Ласкера: Учебник содержит начальные сведения о шахматной игре, некоторые примеры, которые должны дать читателю представление о тонкостях шахмат, и объемистые сведения по теории начал (с пояснительными партиями). Глава о комбинации включает множество примеров, относящихся ко всем стадиям шахматной партии. На мой взгляд, представление Ласкера о комбинации несколько старомодно, но коллекция примеров превосходна. В главе о позиционной игре производит сильное впечатление как исторический обзор, так и собрание примеров позиционной игры. Эта глава - украшение учебника. В наши дни шахматисты мало знают о прошлом шахмат, о том, как формировалось учение о позиции. Ласкер был живым свидетелем развития первого этапа шахматной теории (ведь он выиграл матч за шахматную корону у самого Стейница), и здесь сведения об этом периоде развития шахмат читатель получает из первоисточника. Глава об эстетике шахмат, сама по себе весьма интересная, вряд ли имеет самостоятельное значение. Ее содержание могло бы быть разделено между главой о комбинации и главой о позиционной игре. Заканчивается учебник примерными партиями. Отметим отсутствие специальной главы об эндшпиле. Сведения о нем рассеяны по книге. То, что книга написана великим шахматным бойцом и мыслителем делает ее изучение полезной для каждого, серьезно изучающего шахматы и интересующегося их прошлым.
