Chess Studies: Or Endings Of Games is a book written by Joseph Kling and originally published in 1851. The book is a collection of chess studies, which are positions in chess that require a player to find the best move or series of moves to achieve a specific goal. The studies in this book are focused on the endings of games, which are the final stages of a chess game where only a few pieces remain on the board. The book is divided into three parts. The first part contains studies that focus on the endgame, where the goal is to checkmate the opponent's king. The second part contains studies that focus on the middle game, where the goal is to gain an advantage in material or position. The third part contains studies that focus on the opening, where the goal is to establish a strong position on the board.Each study in the book is presented with a diagram of the chessboard and a description of the goal of the study. The reader is then challenged to find the best moves to achieve the goal. The book is intended for intermediate to advanced chess players who are looking to improve their skills and understanding of the game.Overall, Chess Studies: Or Endings Of Games is a valuable resource for chess players who are looking to improve their game and learn new strategies for winning in the endgame.Containing Upwards Of Two Hundred Scientific Examples Of Chess Strategy, Illustrated By Diagrams.
