What reading level is Common Sense in Chess book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This is the "work to be done, " and it is enormous, consider- ing the large amount of force gifted with capacity to capture and obstruct, at the enemy's disposal. This task is still made more difficult by the other one which you have to perform to protect your own King against your opponent's assaults. The Chess world went about the task thus vol- untarily undertaken, and attempted to solve the problem involved by the humanly most direct method ; it simply tried it, piling variation on variatio...n, correcting and re-correcting them, for, say, two thousand years. Many beautiful games were played, and startling discoveries made, but the real problem was never solved. And why, may we ask, have for so long a time the exertions of the best brains of the human race continually failed? There is one answer whose cogency is irresistible, an answer whose truth seems to be proved by experience beyond doubt, viz. , there is no solution, and for this reason, the resources on each side are so evenly balanced that the trifling advantage of the first move is not sufficient to force the defence to resignation.
