THE CHESS TACTICS BIBLE!!

What more can I say than this is the best Tactics book i have ever had the plesure of reading. and I own 37 tactics books. Grandmaster Yuri Averbakh is a chess genius!!

Great book to use for practice

This book was recomended to me by a friend and it is great. One of the best books of this type about combinations I own.

THE book on chess tactics

This book is an impressively thorough coverage of chess tactics, dissecting every imaginable tactical device into its components in a brilliantly scientific manner. This is the molecular theory of chess.In addition to its theoretical content, the book also includes a large number of classic chess compositions, selected to illustrate the points in the theoretical part. And there are tactical quizzes as well.The book starts from the elementary, so you need not be an "advanced" player to benefit from it. It is hard to imagine that this classic can ever be surpassed. I include it in the top 5 of all chess books ever written.
