Three time world champion and one of the best players at the time gives you
the basics of rules and play and proceeds into 5 games that illustrate play and
strategies. He stops throughout the games to describe various themes and
positions. On to a little cube advice (very little) and you're done. I didnt
find the illustrative game format very useful for a beginner without thorough
coverage of strategies and types of games. And as with many boks of the early
70's, there are several plays suggested that are not technically correct.
