“All very entertaining! Books like these belong to the treasury of chess. Recommended!”
—John Elburg Book reviewer at the Chess Mail web site.

“John Knudsen brings together some of the best known quotes and epigrams of chess. From masters like Morphy to Fischer, and non-masters from Pascal to Letterman, all are witty sayings about this game we call chess. Essential Chess Quotations sums up what chess is and isn’t to the players who have mastered the game and to the non-players who have given up on the game. The quotes about correspondence chess are especially revealing from players who either love or hate postal play. From the humorous to the philosophical, it’s all here in one big collection. And you can quote me.”
—Bill Wall Prolific chess author and philosopher.

“If chess games could be won by flinging the perfect quote at your opponent, then ESSENTIAL CHESS QUOTATIONS would be John Knudsen’s MY SYSTEM. I certainly intend to quote from it, even if it doesn’t raise my rating.”
—FM Alex Dunne Chess author and “The Check Is In The Mail” columnist.

A professional writer explains to you the complete and detailed set of rules for each game. Similar games are grouped into topical chapters, with 25 illustrations for reference (that you will remember). An appendix provides a user-friendly cross-reference for finding a game to match ages and number of players.

The author begins with a history of dominoes, and throughout the book introduces the topic of Dominoforms, which explain typical features and structures of tile games. They are at once both familiar in their general styles of play and concise in their treatment.

Breathe new life into those tired old checkers, card, and dice games as you combine them with dominoes in interesting new games—the second half of the book describes many such games. Dominoes Plus is a guidebook as much as a reference. If you don’t have someone at hand eager to play, the author offers ideas on how to find a game.
