INTRODUCTION.
CHESS
without the use of Queens and Rooks
sounds impossible. As a game it would doubtless be so; but so many excellent problems have been composed along these restricted lines, that any solver who lost the Queens and Rooks from his set of chessmen would still have material for almost endless study. My good friend and collaborator, H. Staerker of Bournemouth, England, recently sent me 2,500 positions in which White's force, apart from King and Pawns, was limited to Knights and Bishops the result of only a few weeks' search. This book is largely based on his collection. All problems in four or more moves are omitted, and the restrictions as to force are extended to Black; but even so the work of selection has not been an easy one. The result should at least prove an interesting study of the interplay of the minor officers; and any solver who masters all the problems should become an adept at handling his Knights and Bishops in more complex positions. The problems are graded
according to the number of White Knights or Bishops used. Pawn promotions have consistently been avoided, where they involved the making of the rejected officers. Nos. 1, 19 and 48 are distinctly members of our class. The promotions in Nos. 17, 24 and 78 are rather inin
groups,

essentially diagonal, as
problems involving flight squares will for the most part have them diagonally. Indeed, there exists a whole multitude of problems with only minor officers, in which the Black King has three or four diagonal flights, usually on the move preceding the mate. They are very tame affairs, and repeat one another
that of the Bishop; consequently
so often as to deserve relegation to the pigeonhole of worn-out themes. Nos. 32, 38, 49, 54, 55 are the best or earliest examples of the various flight-principles involved. The most prominent strategic characteristic of the collection is the self-blocks by Black. These occur in every other problem more or less conspicuously. They should especially be studied
and compared
in the Frontispiece
30, 31, 48, 56, 60, 61, 64, 65, 74,
and in Nos. 25, 75 and 79.
Another element to be noted is the way in which the minor officers can be made to play for position according as Black relaxes its guard in
various directions or furnishes convenient blocks. Nos. 44, 52, 53, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73 and 87 all illustrate some phase of this form of skirmishing. It will readily be seen from the last two groups mentioned that in general the problems in th

must be of waiting, rather than threat, and this trait holds good throughout. Less general resemblances and groupings can be found by the reader according to his personal taste; such comparisons will serve to make the book something more than a series of isolated puzzles. A few hints may be given at random, to be made the starting-point for further comstrategy;

16. So many problems illustrate pure and model mates that it is useless to enumerate them. The following by English and American composers are noteworthy: Nos. 45, 72, 85, 88 and 94. It will be noticed that many of the problems are of recent date. There is no question that as the refinement of problem composition continues, similar results will be achieved with smaller and smaller material, so that more and more themes will be brought within the compass of the Knight and Bishop class. Take No. 33. The four mates here combined have been published under different names innumerable times, certainly several hundred times. No. 33 was the first example without a White Queen, but within the last three years, at least a dozen other renderings without a Queen have been published. This modern craze for the expression of ideas in their lowest terms and

are the occasional masterpieces of concise strategy and gem-like purity which I have tried to gather together in these pages.
