The man who wrote, "Tactics is 99 percent of chess," might well have added, "and 99 percent of the fun, too!" Brilliant sacrifices and combinations, either calculated in advance or played on the spur of the moment, give us thrills that cannot be equaled by any other aspect of the game.

And, by a very fortunate coincidence, these brilliant strokes are just what we need in order to become first-rate players. But then comes the practical question: How do we learn to become brilliant players, or is this a knack that one has to be born with?

The answer is reassuring: Every chess player, no matter what his degree of skill, can learn how to play brilliant chess. The first step toward mastery is to become familiar with the different types of tactical motifs. The second step is to study a great many examples of these tactical themes.

This book fills the need for both. It will add to your knowledge, making you a strong chess player, and it will delight you with some of the most beautiful moves ever played on the chessboard.

Fred Reinfeld was a native New Yorker. He began playing chess at City College. While still in his teens, he became Inter-collegiate Champion and was victorious in the New York State, Manhattan Club, and Marshall Club Championship matches, beating world-renown opponents.

Mr. Reinfeld was one of the editors of "Chess Review," wrote more than 50 chess books, and was on the staff of New York University, where he taught chess to hundreds of students yearly.
