Lightning Speed Endgame Technique
光速の終盤術
Koji Tanigawa, Meijin
Translated by Richard Sams
Published by the Shogi Renmei in December 1988, this book became an instant classic
and is still considered to be one of the best shogi books ever written. Providing
rare insights into the thought processes of top professionals in the endgame, it is
a must-read for every shogi player who wants to take his or her game to a level higher than
3-dan amateur. Taking examples from his own games, the young Meijin Tanigawa explains
his way of thinking and techniques for converting a good or winning position into a
victory.
Richard Sams, a professional translator of Japanese and shogi enthusiast, has taken up
the task of translating this classic book into English and publishing those translations
on these pages. This is your chance to take lessons on how to play the endgame from one
of the greatest endgame players in shogi history.
