Basic Endgame
Strategy: Kings, Pawns and Minor Pieces
by Bill Robertie
Learn the mating principles and
combinations needed to finish off opponents. From the four basic checkmates
using the King with the queen, rook, two bishops, and bishop/knight combinations,
to the King/pawn, King/Knight and King/Bishop endgames, you'll learn the
essentials of translating small edges into decisive checkmates. Learn the
50-move rule, and the combinations of pieces that can't force a mate against a
lone King.
