This is a reprint of the original third book, with all of the games converted into Algebraic Figurine PGN Notation with diagrams in the back. Alekhine died in 1946, so this third volume was edited by International Master and British Chess Champion Conel Hugh O'Donel Alexander, based in part on the notes left by Alekhine to some of the games.

Quick Tricks
Chess MoviesTM represents a new idea in the Pandolfini Chess Library Series. It offers instructional material with every single move diagrammed and explained. Thus a chessboard and pieces are not needed to follow through. This makes it possible to rely solely on the book itself, as one would with a text on tactics and problems, without having to set up the positions, even though the present volume, Quick Tricks, contains games of ten full moves or more.

The name of Jose Raul Capablanca (1888-1942), the third world champion, is indelibly inscribed in the annals of chess history. Capablanca's technique, intuition, remarkably quick calculation, and sense for elegant combinations made him the paragon of grandmasters during his lifetime. At the peak of his career Capablanca was almost invincible; each of his losses was regarded as a sensation. His books, articles, and lucid annotations became instant classics.

An Account of the Lessing Rosenwald Tournament - NY 1954-1955
Trophy Chess was one of Bobby Fischer's favorite books. He studied it with great care during his sudden appearance right after this tournament and his rapid rise to the top, culminating in his winning his first of eight US Chess Championships in 1957/58. It is nicely laid out and designed and is easy to read. In his famous "My 60 Memorable Games" Fischer later collaborated with Evans, who served as his second during his rise to the world championship and became one of America's best-selling chess authors with over 20 books to his credit.

Practical Lessons of a Junior World Champion
Mastering Positional Chess is a serious, but entertaining chess instruction book. Daniel started writing it when he realized that his lack of positional understanding was causing him to lose many games.
Mastering Positional Chess
Expanded and Updated
In the battle of chess ideas, the publication in 1991 of Dynamic Chess Strategy was a defining moment. Before Mihai Suba's exceptional book, chess writers had neglected one of the most important factors of a chess position: its dynamic potential. Suba demonstrated that the traditional concept of improving the position was often static and irrelevant, and that classical strategy, if applied dogmatically, can prevent you from finding the right plan and its subsequent moves.
Dynamic Chess Strategy
An Astonishing Trip into the World of Competitive Chess

CoffeeHouse Chess Tactics
From First Attack to Checkmate
This is not your typical beginner's chess book! Written by longtime children's book author Paul Mantell, and International Master of Chess Dean Ippolito, Chess in Action effectively captures the excitement of the battle: the thrill of staying one step ahead of your opponent, of launching a surprise attack, of drawing your adversary into a trap.
Chess In Action
It's a fact of chess life that if you want to win, you have to put a bit of study in. Every chess player, from near-beginner to experienced tournament player, needs to learn the openings and keep on top of current theory. But studying doesn't have to be dull.
Studying Chess Made Easy
A Step-by-Step Approach to Mastering Tactics and Combinations
Few books present a structured approach to tactics, so this book fills a valuable niche in the ambitious player's library. The authors present each major tactical theme in turn, explaining how it works and providing inspiring examples. They then explain how you can spot the idea in your own games and use it to your advantage.
A Course in Chess Tactics
1001 Brand New Chess Puzzles to Challenge and Entertain Players from Novices to Grandmasters
Tactical skills are paramount in chess. More than anything else, a player's ability to find tactical solutions determines how successful he is over-the-board. No endgame scheme, opening idea or strategic plan, however brilliant a concept it may be, is of any value unless it is accurately calculated and implemented.
The best way to develop tactical skills is to practice them by tackling new and challenging positions. This book provides a wealth of chess puzzles to test just about every facet of your tactical ability. It is very unlikely that even those who have read many other chess puzzle books will recognize more than a handful of these positions. Franco has searched recent events and used powerful computers to seek out previously unpublished puzzles, and has also drawn extensively upon Latin American sources that he has been scouring for brilliant examples over the last three decades.
Following the pattern of Gambit's hugely successful Ultimate Chess Puzzle Book (by John Emms), the book begins with 100 relatively easy positions suitable for novices, and ends with 100 extremely tough puzzles, which provide a mind-bending challenge even for grandmasters. There are 1001 puzzles in all, including themed sections and graded tests, all with detailed computer-verified solutions and verbal explanations of the main instructive points.

Mastering Chess Strategy
Mistakes are often made in the early part of the game - at all levels of chess - but a key skill is to recognize these critical moments as they happen and to exploit them with maximum efficiency. This is a skill which Grandmaster Simon Williams addresses in this book. Using instructive and entertaining games in which one side wins quickly, he examines all the typical mistakes chess players make in the opening and early middlegame, how you should look to exploit them, and how to avoid falling into similar traps yourself.

LotRO - Captain Class Guide PvMP
OVERVIEW | SOLO | GROUP | PvMP | LEGENDARY ITEMS | TRAITS | VIRTUES | SKILLS
PvMP AS A CAPTAIN
Perhaps it's the Captain's healing and buffing abilities that makes them targets in the 'Moors... or maybe it's the superhero armor.
Of the three heavy-armour classes in the game, the Captain is the target most preferred by creeps. Not because the Captain is easiest of the three to kill, but because they present the most danger in a raid. This is a class that keeps his group healed and buffed, can soak up half of his group's damage and not die, and can revive fallen allies while in combat. For the creeps, it's a matter of necessity to take such an enemy down as quickly as possible.
Captains are quite impressive in the Ettenmoors. They can stand toe-to-to against most creep classes in a one-on-one sparring match (provided they don't mind burning a few of their long-cooldown skills), and they are much more durable raid healers than squishy Minstrels or Runekeepers. But raid-spec Captains will need to plan on taking some beatings for their effort - slotting the trait Defiance will extend Last Stand for a bit and provide a heal upon expiration so the fire-damage-over-time shots from the Black Arrows don't instantly kill when the buff ends.
Traiting for threat generation is pointless in PvMP since the creeps ignore threat and attack whoever they wish, but going with a tank-spec build is not a bad idea. Using a 1-hander and a shield will make attacks faster and add a bit to armour rating, which significantly improves defense versus using a halberd or other 2-hander.
Summoned pets in the Ettenmoors require a lot of micro-management to be effective. Untended heralds can run amok in enemy territory, or aggro pathing mobs that can jeopardize battles against creeps. Standards are preferred here, as they are static (no risk of unintentional aggro) and can be used in-combat.
he has Last Stand up!"
"Well, then, err... Take that one's wallet!"
Raid-spec Captains will spend much of their time supporting the group's healers, either protecting them from flankers or spamming heals alongside them, occasionally foraying into enemy territory with the front-liners. During these occasional pushes, the Captain will likely find himself being singled out and heavily targeted. When this happens, the Captain has a few options:
- pop Last Stand and retreat behind the tanks, hoping the creeps aren't reckless enough to give chase
- pop Last Stand and hold your ground, hoping your allies come to your aid before the buff wears off
- pop Last Stand and run away from the rest of the raid, hoping your attackers give chase, thus splitting up the creep raid and making them weaker. A lot of the time, the creeps will only see the very low morale and not realize that Last Stand has been used, and will give merry chase hoping to score an easy kill. The longer they chase you, the more time your allies have to recover and beat down the ones who don't fall for the ruse.
