    In the vast ocean of chess literature there are relatively few books about the endgame, and only a few of them can be considered true chess classics. And the most outstanding among the classics — Reuben Fine's book "Basic Chess Endings". Reuben Fine (1914−1993) was for a long time one of the best chess players in the world. As an author, Fine showed himself to be an excellent analyst who understood the full depth and peculiarities of the endgame. Having studied various types of standard positions, Fine established useful rules for practical play and proved himself to be an experienced teacher who, using skillfully chosen examples, was able to teach the reader all the necessary lessons and introduce him to the basic ideas of the endgame. Many generations of chess players in different countries of the world keep copies of “Basic Chess Endings”. For example, Mikhail Botvinnik considered Fine's work the most worthy of all that had ever been written on endgame theory.

    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).

    Alexander Panchenko himself says the following about this book: "The middlegame is the most difficult part of the game, so it is naturally impossible to understand it within the limits of one book. I decided to limit myself to 10 lectures. The topics discussed will help readers to better understand the problems of the middle game. Listening to the comments (mainly from coaches working with children) about my first book "Theory and Practice of Chess Endings", the author after each lecture now offers not only positions for solving (competitions), but also positions for playing. This will help to better assimilate the material."
