TEST YOUR CHESS WITH DANIEL KING by King Daniel

Assess your chess strength with this test-yourself guide. In this instructive and entertaining book, based on the author's Chess Monthly column, Grandmaster Daniel King invites you to sit alongside the leading players in the world and predict their moves. Points are awarded - or deducted - depending on how successful you are. By testing yourself over several games you can gauge your chess rating. In addition, by examining the strategies and ideas of the world's best players, you will have the opportunity to improve your own game. Test Your Chess is a valuable aid to self-improvement: each game has an introduction, profiling the winner and their playing style, so that this book also provides a colourful portrayal of the current chess elite.
