    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.

In 1929, the publication of an eight-volume collection of works was started, which, apparently due to the persecution of Pilnyak in September of the same year, was suspended for the sixth volume, and subsequently, with the same, but supplemented Preface and the same composition, was reissued and completed. Therefore, it would be more accurate to talk about the existence of one eight-volume collection of works, which was published in 1929-1930. Repressed. Pilnyak's works were not reprinted until 1976. Presented here is the only collection of Pilnyak's works of the author's era.
