After a steady stream of inventors, artists, and storytellers tried and failed, a man seemed with a box and a gameboard. So begins the story.
The man explains how Each and every piece moves, and why. For instance, the king is all-powerful, so he can move in any direction. But because a ruler will have to be cautious, he can move only one square per turn. he animosity of the kings is so great that they are able to never occupy adjacent squares, and their importance is such that if a side loses its king, it has lost the war. Each and every piece is given identical remedy, as are such moves as check, checkmate, castling, and en passant. The highly individualistic illustrations lend a hand demonstrate the mechanics of the game explained within the text, and a more conventional board-and -piece icon on Each and every page show that more literal interpretation of the move. Through an illustrated story of the creation of chess, this book provides narratives and visual devices for learning the game and remembering the moves.
The Story of Chess will excite and teach children new to the game and will emphasize Each and every piece’s importance for those already conversant in the rules.
