Mastering Complex Endgames (Hardcover)

Mastering Complex Endgames is a rich collection of practical endgame examples whose assessments require more than just standard theory. Daniel Naroditsky drew heavily on his own experience as a player. The material is lively and instructive, with wonderful practical advice and insights into the minds of the chess greats. This highly systematic work will take your endgame technique to the next level.
