OK Beginner Puzzle Book.

You get 100 puzzles with solutions in the back of the book. Puzzles are from recent (2000-2003) named tournament games. Puzzles 1-29 are easy Mate in 1. Most of the rest are Mate in 2 moves, some easy, some slightly harder. This is a beginner puzzle book which requires only basic chess knowledge. I found 1 error in solution # 45; otherwise this book is well done. I think the only issue I have with this book is there is only one puzzle per page. It could have easily been at least 2 per page for a better value.
