520    "A little book of life advice drawing on the timeless 
       wisdom of chess from Maurice Ashley, the first African 
       American Chess Grandmaster. At age thirty-three, Maurice 
       Ashley became the first African American to attain the 
       rank of International Grand Master of Chess. Since that 
       historic moment, he has brought his love of the game to a 
       wide audience as an educator, innovator, and motivational 
       speaker. In Move by Move, Ashley guides readers through 
       the essential lessons that chess has taught him about life,
       using both personal examples from his rise from an 
       immigrant kid playing matches in Brooklyn parks to the 
       most rarified levels of competition, as well as insights 
       and anecdotes from fellow notable chess players. In short 
       chapters with practical takeaways, this book reaches from 
       the fundamental to the counterintuitive on subjects 
       ranging from self-knowledge to strategic thinking to the 
       importance of failure. This little book of wisdom is the 
       perfect gift for graduates, chess enthusiasts, and anyone 
       interested in understanding how lessons from the most 
       famous and long-lasting game of strategy can help you 
       reach your personal and professional goals."--Amazon.com.
