John Beasley
The author's third, and last, of his chess vanity books gives precedence to endgame studies but repeats his favourite problems from the previous two books Some Flights of Chess Fancy and More Flights of Chess Fancy. The book also features puzzles involving retro chess, variant chess and some joke compositions. Finally there are some non-chess puzzles involving coins, pegboards and bridge!
John Beasley is endgame studies editor for British Chess Magazine and author of several books on studies and problems.

Mark Dvoretsky & Oleg Pervakov
Chess studies reveal the hidden tactical resources available in even the most innocuous looking positions and solving them can help develop a player's ability to calculate at the board. In this book leading Russian coach Mark Dvoretsky and Grandmaster of endgame study composition Oleg Pervakov have selected and annotated studies which have a practical value, sometimes overturning previously given solutions. They include studies from "Studies for Practical Players", an international solving tournament held to celebrate Dvoretsky's 60th birthday, "Training", focusing on the work of Austrian composer Alois Wotawa which resemble practical endgame situations and studies composed by World Champions. The richness of chess is revealed most clearly in these complex endgame positions.
