"The moment I opened Chess 101, I knew
Dave had accomplished something great: a truly simple guide to learning
and enjoying the game. Many attempt this feat, but few beginner chess
manuals really succeed in keeping things simple while highlighting the
best parts of the game of chess!"

seem possible with all of the chess books available today, that a small
brief beginner's guide could fill any unmet need, yet this little book
is worth a beginner's attention - whether adult or child - either on
one's own or in a beginner's class."
