This site contains 24 free visualization exercises (see the links on the left). Each illustrated chapter contains a set of four exercises. The variations run from 5 to 15 half-moves.<br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">.</span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5994528574270244329-3390631683253481326?l=freechessstuff.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>IAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12707311828422886749noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5994528574270244329.post-61950519538735239412007-08-26T09:07:00.001-04:002007-08-26T09:24:55.849-04:00<span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">.</span><br />This link contains 25 positions on <a href="http://www.blogger.com/mini-book%20-%20QRR%20tripled%20on%20a%20single%20file.doc"><br /></a><a href="http://www.chessvisualization.com/mini-book%20-%20QRR%20tripled%20on%20a%20single%20file.doc"><u><b>1.
