Chess For Children
Reinfeld, a prolific American writer and a master chess player, has refined his chess vocabulary down to the level of the beginner, and has produced a book for both the child and the novice adult. Unique is his introduction in which he explains that “there are no less than 169,518,829,100,544 quadrillion ways to play the first 10 moves of a game of chess,” but that even a youngster can learn from a few basic patterns. Proof of this is the fact that the current United States champion is Bobby Fischer, a 14-year-old.
