""Midget Problems: All The Ideas In Positions Of Two Vs. Two Pieces In Checkers"" is a book written by William Timothy Call and originally published in 1913. The book is a comprehensive guide to the game of checkers, specifically focusing on the strategies and tactics involved in positions where two pieces are pitted against two other pieces. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a different aspect of the game. The first chapter provides an overview of the basic rules and terminology of checkers, while subsequent chapters delve deeper into more advanced topics such as openings, midgame tactics, and endgame strategies. Throughout the book, Call provides numerous examples of actual games and positions, and offers detailed analysis and commentary on the moves made by the players. He also includes a number of challenging puzzles and problems for readers to solve, in order to test and improve their own skills and understanding of the game. Overall, ""Midget Problems"" is a valuable resource for anyone looking to improve their proficiency in the game of checkers, and is particularly useful for those looking to master the intricacies of two-vs-two positions.
