Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. 199 pages with diagrams. Royal octavo (9 1/2" x 6 3/4") bound in original publisher's pictorial wrappers. First edition. It is a defense with an old reputation of being passive and only suitable for those positional players who like to keep the game quiet. Such belief has been proved wrong when we have seen many dynamic players such as Jobava or Nakamura playing the black side and obtaining very nice wins. Many new ideas for black have been discovered and the pressure is on white to prove that he can obtain an advantage out of the opening. As things are, the Caro Kann should be taken seriously by every 1.e4 player. Condition: A near fine copy.…

Trade Paperback. Condition: As New. First Edition. 155 Pages with Index of Games. Text pages are bright, tight, and white. The author wrote this book because, during a detailed research on the Leningrad Variation in the Dutch Defence with the development of Black with 7 . tjjc6 (ECO A89),he noticed that many fascinating games had been ignored both by ECO and by subsequent monographs. The aim of this book is that of providing the reader with all of the material he has managed to gather during his years of research. Throughout these years he purchased the various monographs on the Dutch Defence. However, with great dismay he noticed in all of them that, with regard to the variations dealt with in the present book, the same fonts and the same games were always used. Games that he had found in magazines and which were of great interest were completely ignored! In other cases the books halted at the critical point: 8.d5 tjje5 9.tjje5 de5 1O.e4 f4 11.b4 g5 12. nel a6 13.~b2 ~e8 14. ncl tjjg4 15.f3 tjje3 16. ne3 fe3 17.g4 and here Volume A of the Encyclopredia of Chess Openings terminates with a lapidary appraisal of a clear advantage for White! With unbounded stupor he discovered that, in a number of national level correspondence games, Black continued with 17 . h5 18.h3 hg4 19.hg4 .,tg4!! and rapidly won the game. Something common to all openings books and theoretic articles is that often the same position is evaluated differently depending on who the author is. This book should be seen as a good base for those interested in an in-depth study of this particular variation. The games are to be found within the theoretic text, in order to facilitate the following of the development of the game itself and also to grant the attentive reader the possibility of gaining a certain familiarity with the links which exist between the opening, middle-game and end-game in the variation dealt with in this book.…

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 199 pages with diagrams. Royal octavo (9 1/2" x 6 3/4") bound in original publisher's pictorial wrappers. First edition. The Exchange Variation (1.e4 c6 2.d4 d5 3.exd5 cxd5 4.Bd3) is a simple and easy to learn answer to the Caro-Kann. By clarifying the central tension White gives himself a clear plan of attack using the half open e-file and the e5 square. This is far from easy for Black to meet as Bobby Fischer, Jan Timman, Walter Browne and other leading Grandmasters have demonstrated in their games. Black too has his resources but he needs to know what he's doing. On this DVD you will find a clear explanation of the strategy for both sides as well as answers to popular treatments such as 4.Nc6 5.c3 Qc7. Whilst the main focus is on the White side of this opening you will also find ways for Black to defend. Condition: Light edge wear else a near fine copy.…
