Book Description

This is a reprint of two Russian Language chess books combined into one. The author, Igor Bondarevsky, was one of the strongest players in the world. He served as the coach and trainer for Boris Spassky during Spassky's matches with Tigran Petrosian when Spassky won the World Chess Championship.

About the Author(s)

Igor Zakharovich Bondarevsky was born on 12 May 1913 in Rostov-on-Don, Russia. Bondarevsky was ranked among the 15 strongest players in the world and was among the first 27 players to be awarded the grandmaster title by FIDE in 1950. His career peak was reached in 1940 by sharing first place with Andor Lilienthal at the 12th USSR championship in Moscow, ahead Paul Keres, Isaac Boleslavsky and Mikhail Botvinnik. Bondarevsky missed his big chance to play for the World Chess Championship in 1950. He qualified to play in the World Championship Candidates Tournament at Budapest 1950 but he was unable to play because of illness. He died on 14 June 1979 in Pyatigorsk, Russia.

Formation Attacks

As a Chess Master who has spent many years playing aggressive and attacking chess, I was quite dismayed during a recent visit to my local bookstore. I was in search of a book that covered an array of attacks against many Pawn formations in an organized fashion. Needless to say, my search came up empty. The books on attacking fell short in many ways. Many of the books were simply a small collection of attack games with no instruction about the art of attacking or about the skills required to become a great attacker.

Combinations are the central element in chess; they make the game so magical and captivating. The beautiful point of sacrificing a queen, the strongest piece, in order to checkmate with a lowly pawn brings a smile of joy to all chess lovers.
