Synopsis

In this tenth revised version, D.B. Pritchard draws new inspiration from the latest developments in the game. Yet, because the basics remain invariable, Pritchard's teaching method retains its unique pre-eminence and authority. It is planned to take the complete beginner to the grade expected of a good club player.
