    The youngest first–grader in the USSR, the world champion among young men, a participant in the candidates tournament at the age of 19 - Boris Spassky's rise was rapid. And then fate gave the brilliant chess player a test of strength: he stumbled twice at the decisive moment and remained beyond the threshold of interzonal tournaments ... Only ten years after his first great success, Spassky managed to pass all the qualifying tests and earn the right to a match for the crown, but he failed to defeat the Iron Tigran Petrosian the first time. It took three more years of super–efforts: by Sisyphus he rose again to the foot of Olympus and did not miss a second chance - in 1969 he became the Tenth king of chess! An essay about the life of Boris Vasilyevich and his sporting path full of ups and downs was written by Dmitry Oleynikov, Candidate of Historical Sciences, curator of the Chess Museum of the Chess Federation of Russia. 70 beautiful and instructive games of Spassky were commented on by the champion of Russia in 1993, the famous author and theorist grandmaster Alexey Bezgodov, as well as grandmaster Dmitry Kryakvin and FIDE master Steve Giddins. The preface was written by the 14th world champion Vladimir Kramnik. For a wide range of chess fans.

    The authors continue to study typical opening and middlegame positions. Royal Fortress No. 2 has pawns on squares f7, g6, h7 (or f2, g3, h2), and they are usually joined by another defender – bishop on g7 (g2). This formation is called fianchetto, it is found in many popular openings, such as the Catalan Opening, King's Indian Defense, Grunfeld Defense and a number of others.  The authors analyze in detail the techniques of attack, defense and counterattack. Most examples – from the creativity of modern chess players (for example, a separate chapter is dedicated to the strongest Russian grandmaster Ian Nepomniachtchi); they are complemented by parts that have become a classical heritage. The book contains about 300 positions for independent solution, so it is not only a textbook, but also a solid problem book. Grandmaster Konstantin Chernyshov, head of the Interregional Grandmaster School in Kostroma, and his daughter International Master Natalya Kareva – experienced coaches, whose students include grandmasters and masters, champions of Russia and Europe among juniors.  The book is addressed to young chess players and their mentors.

    rossmeister Saveliy Grigorevich Tartakover (22.02.1887, Rostov-on-Don - February 4, 1956, Paris) is a remarkable chess player of the first half of the 20th century who stood at the origins (and the author of this term) of "hypermodernism", which determined a new direction in the development of chess . He not only rightfully wore the unofficial title of "champion among chess journalists", but also won in the largest tournaments: Paris-1929, Liège-1930, Hastings-1926-7, etc. The book includes 107 elected parties Savelia Tartakovera, commented on by him, the endings from his practice, which have today academic value, as well as the most interesting articles from the periodicals of that time. All the chess material was subjected to a "benevolent" computer check by the international master G. Bogdanovich.

    Savely Tartakover occupied a very special place in chess. First of all, he was an innovator, not afraid of experiments, and with his ideas he significantly enriched the theory and practice of chess. He was not only one of the creators of hypermodernism, but also the author of the term hypermodernism itself. It was he who came up with such a current opening as the Catalan Opening, and the Tartakover-Makogonova-Bondarevsky system in the Queen's Gambit has allowed many generations of chess players to successfully fight with black. This textbook was written primarily for second- and third-class chess players, but will also be of interest to more qualified players. Working with it, first of all, improves the reader's positional skills; the book often presents games that are little known today, but very instructive and bright. Working with this tutorial will not only bring you benefits and points in tournaments, but will also bring you great pleasure.

    The textbook of the famous grandmaster and brilliant writer of the 1st half of the 20th century, Savely Tartakower, has never been published in Russian before. According to the author himself, he wanted to combine "useful with pleasant" in it, i.e. to present useful information to the reader in a fascinating presentation. As can be seen from the table of contents, the book is devoted to the subject, the possession of which is mandatory for chess players of II-III categories. Chess players of the first category will take a fresh look at the principles they have already learned and will find a lot of useful things for themselves to further strengthen the game.
    In addition to the practical benefits (first of all), the reader will undoubtedly enjoy studying both little-known and classical examples, which the guru of chess literature commented on in his signature style.
    International master Grigory Bogdanovich checked the options using a computer and made the necessary clarifications, his comments are highlighted in italics in the main text.
