Fred Reinfeld (1910-1964)

It was a massive undertaking to reprint this book. In fact, I wish I
had known how difficult it was going to be. I never would have done
it.

My printer requires that all images be 300 dpi. With 4,000 images in
the book, the file after scanning was more than 2 gigabytes.

I had a difficult time just sending the file to the printer. I was
afraid he would not be able to process it.

Fortunately, he did and the book is out now.

Reinfeld was a great chess writer, under-rated in today's glut of
opening monographs and over-priced Kasparov doorstops. I myself got my
start with Winning at Chess and Chess in a Nutshell.

The only writer who has come close to his style and ability to
popularize the game is Silman, but even he writes to the tournament
player. We need a new Reinfeld!
