Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. 1st Edition. 148+[8 blank note] pages with diagrams and index. Octavo (8 3/4" x 6") bound in original publisher's pictorial wrappers. First edition. The Leningrad System of the Dutch is characterized by an early fianchetto of Black's King Bishop. Thanks to the uncompromising and controversial nature of Black´s first move, 1.f5, this will always lead to sharp and difficult play. On this ChessBase DVD, International Master Andrew Martin makes a compelling case for playing the Leningrad in competitive games and demonstrates that this is the ideal opening for players willing to embrace risk and who like to WIN. Bent Larsen once famously remarked that the Dutch Defence brings out "the chicken" in a lot of opponents. Time and again on this DVD we will see what he means. Maybe Petrosian rubbed his hands with glee at the thought of facing 1.f5, but for the average player the Dutch can be a nasty shock. Condition: Corners bumped and rubbed, light edge wear else very good.

Soft cover. Condición: Near Fine. 256 pages with diagrams and index. Octavo (8"x 5 1/2") bound in original publisher's pictorial wrappers. First edition. Two American grand masters provide a practical survey of the English Attack, one of today's hottest opening variations. In response to Black's Najdorf Sicilian, White plays 6 f3, which both supports the center e-pawn and prepares to launch a kingside pawn storm against Black's castled king. However, Black can indeed postpone castling in favor of queenside expansion and regrouping the knight pair at b6 and d7, and be ready for a swift counter punch when White castles long. Tactics and sharp play abound in this most modern of chess openings where precise knowledge of variations is vital. Condition: Near fine.
