The series of books covers all the squeeze positions
identified by the author.
Since there are so many there is a book on each group of squeezes.
In fact the author has a database of all the positions and it runs
to over 1000. For those unfamiliar with squeezes, there is a
link on this page to an explanation.

Publication dates:
The dates of publication may vary and this page will be updated to show the
present status. Further information on each book can be seen
by following the links on the left.
Downloads: As the books are published there will be a
free download of addenda
and corrigenda to each book.
Threat analysis:
The books all refer to threats (menaces). Each book defines
the threats used in the positions in the book but all the
possible threats will also be made available as a download book at minimal cost.
This will be made available late during the overall publishing process and will
be updated and corrected in line with new discoveries. At
present I have some 180 threat types.
Example deals and material: I have plenty of
material for the book on double squeezes (except for clash squeezes
and secondary positions). I need
as many examples of deals for triple, compound, guard and the less
common trump squeezes as
I can get. The strip squeezes are also rather
short of examples for the more uncommon positions. Any deals
submitted and included in the books will be formally acknowledged and
gratefully received. Tim Bourke has kindly sent me a large
amount of great material on guard, clash, trump and compound
squeezes,
Use of colour: The text includes limited use of colour to enhance the positions but
the cost of printing in colour is still too high and would make the books
prohibitively expensive. The author does hope, however, that
the costs of colour printing will reduce (after all it is only a
small amount, unlike a picture book with extensive use of
colour) allowing future editions to be printed in colour. Not
long ago colour laser printers cost over £2,500 but now they are
available in every high street; perhaps the same will become true of
colour printing. All source text is in colour so printing will be
straightforward.
