The reason which has prompted the author to present yet another work on the Royal Game to the Chess World, is that recently a oldbiscite of the Chess Amateur Magazine readers was taken, and the section Pitfalls ,under the management of the present writer, stood so high that the Chess Amateur Editor advised a publication of a collection in book form. Hence the present volume, which we feel will be welcomed by many players. From these pages we hope the reader may obtain a thorough knowledge, if not of all the Pitfalls existing on the Chessboard, at least of their principles. A knowledge of these is essential, for it is the easiest thing imaginable for a player to obtain a lost game through moving a wrong pawn, taking a wrong pawn, or through taking a pawn at all.
