The game of Chinese Chess (called "Elephant Chess" in China) has

been played for centuries, and is one of the most popular board

games in the world.

In Chinese Chess, author H. T. Lau explains the

game's fundamentals--the rules, the board, and the basic moves and

values of pieces--with clear examples and over 170 diagrams.

Once he's covered the basics, Lau introduces

basic tactics, methods for escaping difficult posi-tions, and

cunning strategies for winning.

The book also includes eighty mid- and end-game

exercises designed to sharpen playing skills, and concludes with

two appendixes devoted to the elegantly constructed games found in

The Secret Inside the Orange and The Plum-Blossom Meter,

two classic seventeenth-century works about Chinese Chess.
