The reader is assumed at the outset to be without any knowledge whatever of the game, and the attempt is made to teach him how to play, and to leave him in a position to profit by the most advanced treatise. The Rules, the Index to theO penings, and the section on Current Chess Litera ture, while of special service to young players, will, it is hoped, render the volume useful as a work of reference to more advanced students. Free use has, necessarily, been made of standard works on the game For the Rules, the Praxis and the book of theL ondon Tourney; for theO penings, Chess Openings ;and for end games, Salvioli and the Handbook have mainly been consulted.
