Learn from the Legends is a modern classic. ChessCafe chose it as their Book of the Year and IM Jeremy Silman went even further when he wrote: &ldquo I can&rsquo t recall having seen a better book in the last two decades.&rdquo Ten years after the original publication, Quality Chess is proud to offer a revised hardback edition with a new chapter on the latest chess legend, Magnus Carlsen.
Mihail Marin examines and explains the ideas of the legends who shaped modern chess. The chapters in this book discuss:
Rubinstein&rsquo s excellent rook endgame technique
Alekhine&rsquo s expertise with the heavy pieces
Botvinnik&rsquo s ability for deep analysis
Tal&rsquo s handling of heavy pieces vs. minor pieces
Petrosian&rsquo s positional exchange sacrifices
Fischer&rsquo s strength with the king&rsquo s bishop
Karpov&rsquo s handling of bishops of opposite colour
Korchnoi the rebel
Carlsen the new king
Mihail Marin is a grandmaster from Romania. His books for Quality Chess have established him as one of the world's finest chess authors.
