Summary

The endgame in chess is one facet of chess which garners the least attention, but a place where study can give the most pay off. Sure, it is very attractive to study openings or tactics to help you gain an immediate large advantage, but how does a large advantage material or positional advantage help you if you cannot convert it to a win once you reach the endgame? The material is split up in the following parts: bull; Basic Knowledge, which needs to be second nature bull; What You Should Know builds on the knowledge in the first part to lift you up above those players who have never really studied endgames, and includes endgames of all types: pawn, rook, bishop, knight and queen endings bull; Kicking It Up A Notch will take you even further, introduce you to more complicated endgames, with more pawns, more pieces, uneven material distribution, and present advice on how to play approximately equal positions, both as the defender and as the aggressor
