1001 Checkmate Exercises: From Beginner to Winner - Volume 2 - 2nd hand

This book presents 1001 checkmate exercises from recent tournament games, and it's a sequel to 1001 Checkmate Exercises: From Beginner to Winner. The exercises in this volume cover the same mates as the previous volume, but there are more exercises that require a higher level of visualisation to solve.

The book contains mate in 1 and 2 exercises. The mate in 1 exercises are split into two chapters. In the first chapter, the position is given just before the mate is possible, and the reader is required to find the mate. In the second chapter, the position is given before the losing move is made. The task is to visualise this move, and then to find the mate. Many of these exercises include bad blunders that thereby allow a checkmate. A supplementary exercise in these cases is for the reader tofind a better move that can potentially avoid the checkmate, although this is not always possible.
