Learn from the Legends is a modern classic. ChessCafe chose it as their Book of the Year and IM Jeremy Silman went even further when he wrote: "I can't recall having seen a better book in the last two decades." Ten years after the original publication, Quality Chess is proud to offer a revised hardback edition with a new chapter on the latest chess legend, Magnus Carlsen. Mihail Marin examines and explains the ideas of the legends who shaped modern chess. The chapters in this book discuss: Rubinstein's excellent rook endgame technique; Alekhine's expertise with the heavy pieces; Botvinnik's ability for deep analysis; Tal's handling of heavy pieces vs. minor pieces; Petrosian's positional exchange sacrifices; Fischer's strength with the king's bishop; Karpov's handling of bishops of opposite colour; Korchnoi the rebel; Carlsen the new king.
