Chess Sacrifices and Traps by Alfred Emery is a comprehensive guide to the art of chess strategy, aimed at intermediate to advanced players. The book is divided into two main sections: sacrifices and traps. The first section covers the various types of sacrifices that can be made in chess, including positional sacrifices, material sacrifices, and tactical sacrifices. Each type of sacrifice is explained in detail, with examples drawn from real games to illustrate the concepts.The second section of the book covers chess traps, which are deceptive moves designed to catch an opponent off guard and gain an advantage. Emery provides a variety of examples of traps, from simple ones that beginners can use to more complex ones that require advanced strategic thinking.Throughout the book, Emery emphasizes the importance of understanding the underlying principles behind each sacrifice or trap, rather than simply memorizing specific moves. He also provides tips on how to avoid falling into traps yourself, and how to recognize when your opponent is setting one up.Overall, Chess Sacrifices and Traps is a valuable resource for any serious chess player looking to improve their strategic thinking and tactical skills.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
