The exercise in question names two squares (given in algebraic notation) and then asks the reader to name the shortest route between them for a knight. No board is shown. No other pieces are referenced. It seems an improbable method for developing one's prowess with knights.

It is a very good method, advocated by GM Lev Alburt who I believe has trained many top Russian chess players.

I love my knights, and I love the way they "gaily gallop about the board" (to paraphrase Chernev).

I don't need my knights.

I only move pawns. πŸ™‚

I see you're up to a total of 32 moves now. Let me guess, you're probably on about, what, Game #16?

Edit - Well, at least you've accomplished something here that many haven't - you've decided on an opening!

In the theme of knights here are some absurd games showcasing knights at their greatest.
