With a unique difficulty-based structure, it empowers players to confidently recognize winning and drawing positions, making it an essential tool for improving over-the-board performance. ## Description For over 100 years, the world's leading chess players and teachers have told their students to study the endgame. This book teaches the students what they need to know at their current rating level, and builds on that knowledge for each subsequent phase of the player's development. Review: The best endgame book for class players - First let me say that some of the criticisms others have mentioned are true. As Mr. Harding says, this book doesn't have many examples of more complex endings. Ideas like pawn breakthroughs, etc. are certainly covered in this book, but until you see them in more complex settings you probably won't fully appreciate the concept. Van Perlo's book "Endgame Tactics" covers this kind of thing much better. I guess it can be said that this is a book about theoretical endgames. Its true that there are other kinds of endgame manuals - books covering what Aagaard calls "Technical Chess", but that is not the emphasis of this book. And as John says, this book does leave out a lot that others may find important (he lists many in his review). Even fairly thin books, like Averbakh's "Chess Endings: Essential Knowledge", covers many endings not covered in Silman's book. OK, that's a valid point, but Silman is deliberately trying to limit the material to the kinds of endings likely to come up in over-the-board play. Despite these valid points, I nevertheless, think this book deserves 5 stars. I really consider it the best guide to the endgame for class players. First, Silman is just a great teacher. He has a way of bringing the student along that takes the drudgery out of learning, and everything really does seem quite straightforward. Now, of course the student will have to set some of these endings up on his computer and practice them - no one said practice was not required. But Silman's explanations convey the basic information as well as any I've seen. Secondly, the simple idea of breaking down the material by difficulty level rather than by material may seem trivial, but its an enormously powerful innovation in teaching endgames, and really sets this book apart. In every other area of life we learn the easier stuff before we learn what is harder. Averbakh's book, for example, covers simple concepts like the square of a pawn on one page and on the next is discussing queen verses rook endgames. Don't get me wrong, I think Averbakh's book is excellent, but I would never give it to a novice (or even a class C or B player) as a book for them to learn endings from. Overall, I think Silman's book is the best for class players to learn from. If they wish to go further in endgames, then Van Perlo's book (for students who are about class B or better) can help with more complex endings. By the time a student reaches class A, the book by Averbakh would certainly be a good addition if he wishes to pursue theoretical endings further. Review: A must for serious players - Jeremy does a great job of making end games understandable. From the simple to the complex he covers the fundamentals you need for end game play He does not cover bishop and knight versus king as this ending is rarely seen and most players never experience it. The book is broken down by rating level, so you can start with beginner fundamentals and work your way up through the complex endings that can occur at higher levels. ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #14,362 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #10 in Chess (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 1,368 Reviews | ## Images ![Silman's Complete Endgame Course: From Beginner to Master - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71oqeiKYwEL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best endgame book for class players *by C***K on March 22, 2014* First let me say that some of the criticisms others have mentioned are true.

From the simple to the complex he covers the fundamentals you need for end game play He does not cover bishop and knight versus king as this ending is rarely seen and most players never experience it. The book is broken down by rating level, so you can start with beginner fundamentals and work your way up through the complex endings that can occur at higher levels. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Progressive skill levels all in one book *by G***G on March 19, 2026* I love the fact that Silman’s books are structured as much for the 1000 rated player as they are for a 1800-2000 player. This endgames book is the only one I’m aware of that isn’t solely written for those with a rating of 1800 or more. As your rating improves, the more you can get from his books. My rating has improved over 400 points, from 800 to mid 1200s, and Silman’s books are a major factor in the improvement. Highly recommend for those players really interested in developing a stronger chess game. ## Frequently Bought Together - Silman's Complete Endgame Course: From Beginner to Master - How to Reassess Your Chess: Chess Mastery Through Chess Imbalances - Modern Chess Openings, 15th Edition --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/1641938-silmans-complete-endgame-course-from-beginner-to-master](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/1641938-silmans-complete-endgame-course-from-beginner-to-master) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-13*
