Best for beginners
Develop your pieces, people.
The easiest chess read for beginners!
I have numerous books on chess. Most are pretty difficult to read and require a level of understanding of chess notation and instant recognition of the chess board, noting multiple moves that you must process mentally. Very light on board images. Not this one! Simple to read, step by step images with explanations. Suggestions for beginners, intermediate and advanced players on openings, etc. Gambits listed with explanations. What an easy read! I loved it before realizing this was the Gotham Chess dude that I watch on YouTube. I’m sold.
