Dvoretsky's Endgame Manual (2nd edition) Mark Dvoretsky
Publisher: Russell Enterprises

FWIW, GM Melik Khachiyan saw my buddy ( 1750) about to buy D.E.M. Another task was to sit down with chess book and board, roll up my sleeves, and review more of the endgame material in Dvoretsky's endgame manual. Try this agonizing puzzle from Dvoretsky's excellent “Endgame Manual 2nd Edition”! An excellent book for an expert like for example Dvoretsky's Endgame Manual may be a bad choice for a 1500 player. I bought a used copy of 'Training for the Tournament Player' by Mark Dvoretsky & Artur Yusupov. Dvoretsky's Endgame Manual, Mark Dvoretsky I'll try to read through/analyze The Art of Attack in Chess (Vukovic) again - It's my second time Those are some heavy duty books, dude! This makes my task as a reviewer a .. Not me, to be sure - at least not frequently enough by far to devote an awful lot of time to all the subtleties of the practical endgames Nunn describes and analyses in his book. You should get something simpler!" I pored thru every variation in Vukovic on a real board-- took about 16 months off and on! It's very hard to decide which book is the best on this subject since it depends on the level of the reader. I started to wonder how many Dvoretsky books there are and came up with the following list • Secrets of Chess Training (Batsford 1991) • Secrets of Chess Dvoretsky's Endgame Manual (Russell Enterprises 2006) Note the two series. But I'll start with Dvoretsky's Endgame Manual, which is probably the best chess endgame theoretical book I've seen. It's the third book I have by the two authors and the fourth by Dvoretsky. The first moves are obvious: 1. At a bookshop and told him, "That book is for players like me! I like the endgame manual by dvoretsky, as you get the most important ideas and tricky examples for their application, although the presentation of the material is not perfect (but didactics in chess books is another case :) ).
