Subject: Book of chess puzles by Juhn Nunn.

This book rates its chess problems (mainly from actual games) as 1-5 in
difficulty rating, the easiest being 1.
If you want to know what I really think, I would tell you that there are other
such books where the most difficult poblems in the book are perhaps equivalent
to the number one of Nunns book.
One or two books of chess problems by Raymond Keene, the most difficult one are
probably easier than the very easiest of Nunns, and Ray Keenes book was not not
written for beginners either.

What I did... I marked all the problems which are rated (when you look into
"hints") 1, and am doing those first.
I really don't know how they are considered as being so easy. There could well
be 4 or 5 levels easier, before that level, with reasonable things to have to
solve.
