Originally published at the beginning of the 20th century as part of a series for chess improvers on all phases of the chess game, this little book contains examples of pawn play in endgames that inexperienced and club players will greatly benefit from studying.With more than 100 well-chosen positions, the author illustrates the types of chess endgames that players should master once they understand and master the fundamentals.

The material has been reexamined, reanalyzed, and edited by FIDE Master Carsten Hansen.
This is the first time this book has been published in algebraic notation.
