Soft cover. Condición: Near Fine. 1st Edition. 100 pages with diagrams and index. Octavo (8 1/4" x 5 1/4") bound in original publisher's pictorial wrappers. First edition. The Anglo-Benoni system of the English Opening enjoys a unique distinction among the contemporary openings. Its Two Knights' variation, 1 c4 c5 2 Nf3 Nf6 3 d4 cxd4 4 Nxd4, A32 in the Encyclopedia of Chess Openings classification, had been shunned by the opening theory until 1970's. Although popular and important enough to find its way into the repertoire of the majority of today's masters, its thematic concepts remain controversial due to its strategic disparity with the more classic lines of the English Opening. And yet, it is the very dynamic positions and strategic possibilities that make the Condition: Near fine.

Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. Game Diagrams Ilustrador. 1st Edition. 39 pages with diagrams and index. Octavo (8 1/4" x 5 1/2") bound in original publisher's pictorial stapled wrappers. First edition. Here is a new surprise weapon in the venerable Spanish Game (Ruy Lopez). This is the most popular double King Pawn opening and has been analyzed for hundreds of years. It would seem to be extremely difficult to introduce a new idea on only the fourth move of this defense, but the authors demonstrate the practical value of this innovation through analysis and the presentation of examples of the variation from tournament, match, and correspondence play. Most lines of play resulting from the thrust 4. d5 in the Cordel Defense lead to early exciting tactical skirmishes with ample opportunity for the unwary or unprepared opponent to go astray into quick defeat. Nine complete annotated games are supplemented by 21 additional games incorporated into the analytical part of the book. Condition: Edge wear else very good.

Trade Paperback. Condición: Very Good. A few smudges on wrappers, owner address label inside front wrapper. Binding tight and square, pages clean, bright, and unmarked. 1984 Trade Paperback. 101, [3] pp. The Cambridge Springs is a popular defence to the Queen's Gambit that takes its name from the famous tournament in 1904 during which it was tested in a number of games. Since then it has become firmly established as a club-player's favourite, since Black sets a number of traps and can generate a very quick initiative if White fails to respond precisely. Several world champions have used the Cambridge Springs, most notably Alekhine and Smyslov, while Kasparov has played it on occasion, including a sensationally quick victory over Karpov in 1985.

Soft cover. Condición: Good. 1st Edition. 58+[2 ad] pages with diagrams and index. Octavo (8 1/4" x 5 3/4") bound in original publisher's stapled wrappers. First edition. The English Opening is a chess opening that begins with the move: 1. c4 A flank opening, it is the fourth most popular and, according to various databases, one of the four most successful of White's twenty possible first moves. White begins the fight for the centre by staking a claim to the d5-square from the wing, in hypermodern style. Although many lines of the English have a distinct character, the opening is often used as a transpositional device in much the same way as 1.Nf3 to avoid such highly regarded responses to 1.d4 as the Nimzo-Indian and Grünfeld Defences and is considered reliable and flexible. Condition: Wrappers soiled, edge wear with bumped corners, some check marks in ad pages else good.

The Reti Opening is a chess opening that begins with the moves 1. Nf3 d5 2. c4.

White flexible keeps the d-and-e pawns on their starting squares for the time being, and creates pawn tension on move two to challenge black's d-pawn. Condition: Some high-lighting throughout, edge wear with bumped corners else good.
