   I am in the process of introducing a friend to chess.  I first gave her the
Bobby Fischer Teaches Chess book and she has worked through the entire book
and REALLY enjoyed it.  She was saying things like,  "Gosh, I wish I knew
how to GET to these neat positions", and "How do you start a game?".

   My question is,  what is a good next step?  Should I give her an opening
book?  A middlegame or endgame book?  Or one of the "primers" like Lasker's
Modern Chess Strategy or Tarrasch's manual?  I think Nimzovich's My System
is too advanced,  isn't it?

   Or should I go ahead and teach what I know (which isn't much).  I showed
her about opposition, how to mate with 2 rooks, 2 bishops, etc.  

   Any suggestions?  Mail me or post.  I'll summarize if appropriate.

   Thanks in advance!
