I know Yury Chertok, Master of Sports of the USSR, from joint performances in all-Union and international competitions, where we were friends outside the checkers board and competitors in tournaments. The author, acting on the golden principle "from easy to difficult", teaches checkers fans the basics of the game. The examples are chosen with taste: along with the classic ones known in the book, there are many new original ones, or those familiar only to a limited circle of checkers players. The reader is gradually, unobtrusively carried away into the world of checkers, revealing and showing the beauty of the game, its subtleties, charms. Giving the basics of tactics, the author suggests positions for independent decision, explaining the elements of the position, showing the pros and cons of drafts formations using concrete, convincing examples. It seems that the debut in a new field will bring fans unforgettable moments of meeting with the beautiful and will bring new fans of the folk game to the world of checkers.
