This clever book contains everything that you need to start playing chess! The press-out pieces slot together without glue to create 32 pieces and a board; and all the instructions that you need to play are included, too. Beautifully illustrated throughout, the watercolor artwork has a broad appeal. Clear and concise instructions guide the reader through the basics of playing chess, with additional material covering more in-depth moves. With over 500,000 model making books sold by Arcturus, this brand new title is a great addition to the range. Netflix's record-breaking 'The Queen's Gambit' has helped boosts sales of chess sets as well as books about chess.
