“..an outstanding documentary series that is incredibly thought-provoking and informative. Four distinct hour-long episodes with varied appeal and structure. Through the Mirror of Chess has as much place in the classroom as it does public library documentary shelves. Highly Recommended.” –Video Librarian (4 1/2 stars out of 5)
