Grandmaster Murray Chandler finished second in the World Cadet Championship in 1976, ahead of Garry Kasparov, whom he defeated in their individual game. He remains to this day one of the few players in the world with a 100% score against Kasparov. He was a key member of the England team that won the silver medals in Chess Olympiads three times during the 1980s, and went on to captain the team in 1994. He is a former proprietor and editor of the British Chess Magazine and the author of several successful chess books. His previous book for Gambit, How to Beat Your Dad at Chess, has proved one of the most popular chess books of recent years.
"As a teacher of scholastic/junior players, I have long wished for a comprehensive yet brief and inexpensive guide to chess tactics. Murray Chandler has finally created a work that fills the bill" - Bill Whited, Chess Country "Chandler writes in a clear, intelligent style that does not talk down to kids" - Daniel Lucas, Georgia Chess "The introductory texts are for children of primary school age and are very witty, with useful vocabulary for children." - Harald Fietz, Schach Magazin 64
