A very nice book written by ex-World Champion Vasily Smyslov.

 

You'll find nothing but positions from his games or completee games, which is good news because a player will normally annotate his own games best. There are 7 chapters:

 

Pawn endings

Minor piece endings

Rook endings

Endings with Rooks and Minor pieces

Endings with Queens

My studies

Illustrative games.

 

Smyslov's comments are simple, straight forward and very clear. They're easy to follow. Nice job. Pay attention to the fact that players with a rating of more than 2100 will find it more useful.
