Endgame Labyrinths presents
the reader with 1002 challenging studies selected and
truncated, with their usefulness for the practical
player in mind. It is common for studies to be extended
by less interesting manoeuvres or by incomprehensible
sequences, before the main themes come into play. The
studies in this book have been pruned to leave the
reader with 1002 clear and solvable challenges.
A

reanalysis and refining have gone into putting together
the study book for the practical player with the most
value ever.
