Preface

Chess Fundamentals was first published thirteen years ago. Since then there have appeared at different times a number

of articles dealing with the so-called Hypermodern Theory. Those who have read the articles may well have thought

that something new, of vital importance, had been discovered. The fact is that the Hypermodern Theory is merely the

application, during the opening stages generally, of the same old principles through the medium of somewhat new

tactics. There has been no change in the fundamentals. The change has been only a change of form, and not always for

the best at that.

In chess the tactics may change but the strategic fundamental principles are always the same, so that Chess

Fundamentals is as good now as it was thirteen years ago. It will be as good a hundred years from now; as long in fact

as the laws and rules of the game remain what they are at present. The reader may therefore go over the contents of the

book with the assurance that there is in it everything he needs, and that there is nothing to be added and nothing to be

changed. Chess Fundamentals was the one standard work of it kind thirteen years ago and the author firmly believes

that it is the one standard work of its kind now.
