Review Quotes:
"Clear, concise, and relevant. Martin does a great job presenting the basics of required strategic chess knowledge for a beginning chess player's understanding." --Daniel Rensch, chief chess officer, Chess.com

Review Quotes:
"Jessica has written one of the best all-in-one chess books, with everything from the basics to intermediate-level techniques. If you prefer a 10-volume set that will teach you the same thing, go nuts, but Chess Strategy for Beginners is all you need on your shelf. She's added in her 20 years of chess teaching witticisms, colorful diagrams, test-yourself exercises, and just the right amount of girl power." --FM Mike Klein, "FunMasterMike", chief chess officer, ChessKid.com

Review Quotes:
"Jessica Martin has done it again! This is a beautifully produced book that is well written and designed, and will be of great joy to any beginner or intermediate player. The examples illustrate excellent strategic and tactical themes while also showing the diversity of the game's greatest practitioners. So many of my favorite players are highlighted, from the first African-American Grandmaster in history, Maurice Ashley, to reigning US Women's Champion, Carissa Yip, to one of the top player's in the world, Filipino-born American, Wesley So. This book will be sure to educate AND inspire you simultaneously." --Jennifer Shahade, two-time US Women's Champion and author of CHESS QUEENS

Review Quotes:
"I was impressed with Chess Strategy for Beginners. It has good, clear diagrams and gives an introduction to many key strategic chess concepts. I think that kids 9 years old and over and adults who are new to chess could benefit from this book. I especially like the quiz feature at the end, which tests your knowledge of many of the concepts that have been introduced." --Ben Johnson, host of the Perpetual Chess Podcast
