Hendriks - On the Origin of Good Moves

Chess set inspired by the models in vogue during the 50's and 60's in the Eastern countries. The two-coloured pieces bring a special touch, but the set remains quite classical with the ultra sober design of the pieces. The set of pieces is made of acacia wood and boxwood, they are all well weighted for an excellent grip and benefit from a felt underneath for a perfect glide and a comfort of use when moving the pieces. The king measures 9.5 cm and the rook 5.5 cm, the ideal sizes for the chess board we have used it on. The board is made of Padouk wood, it measures 53 cm and each square is 5.5 cm.

This time, it's not you should know, but you must know... it's the crème de la crème of endgame studies (as the title indicates, there are 100), compiled and commented on by one of the world's leading specialists, the Dutch GM Jan Timman.

Divided into 5 chapters, it starts with affordable studies and ends with extremely complex positions. 231 pages
