Editorial Review

Chess to go. The pieces, with a standard Staunton design, are 1 to 1.75 inches high and attach firmly to the 9.5-inch-square board. Even if you're playing in the back of a car on a mountain road, you don't have to worry that your brilliant and unusual variation on an obscure Paul Morphy attack strategy will be hurled onto the floor mats and lost to history. Ranks and files are marked 1 to 8 and A through H. The board is .75 inch thick when opened, and folds in two to form a snap-closing box that holds the pieces. A basic explanation of the game is included. --Richard Farr
