| Summary: | "The Queen's Gambit is one of the oldest openings and was mentioned by Polerio at the end of the sixteenth century. It is also one of the most dependable and popular at all levels of play and has featured regularly in recent World Championship matches. A detailed monograph on 1 d4 d5 2 c4 e6 is therefore long overdue and this thorough work covers all important lines in great detail. Substantial original analysis has been included by one of the world's great opening researchers, who is most famous for the Polugayevsky variation of the Najdorf, but has also made major contributions to other openings." -- Back cover. |
