Descripción
Grandmaster Repertoire 14 – The French Defence, The French Defence is one of the most popular and reliable responses to 1.e4. Black invites his opponent to gain space in the centre, with the intention of undermining the enemy position and launching a counterattack. Although the amount of theory has expanded in recent years, the French often leads to positions where positional and strategic understanding prove more relevant than long sequences of computer-generated moves.
The French Defence
Grandmaster Repertoire 14 – The French Defence 1 introduces the Winawer Variation after the opening moves 1.e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3.Nc3 Bb4, and provides expert recommendations against all of White’s major possibilities, with the exception of the most critical 7.Qg4 line which receives special coverage in Volume Two of the series. Volume Three will deal with the Tarrasch, Advance and all of White’s other options.

Emanuel Berg
“Chess is so deep that you can dig so deep into an opening variation that you feel close to the other side… Swedish (honorary Norwegian) grandmaster Emanuel Berg have done just this with the Winawer variation in the French Defence. In a two-volume work, Emanuel has performed a piece of research worthy of a doctorate on these rich lines.
This is a book on World Championship level; but also brilliant for the ordinary club player fascinated with chess openings and the aesthetic aspects of chess.”
GM Simen Agdestein
“It’s a nice mix of delving deep into the well-known and dabbling with dynamic deviations. In both cases he seems to have found so many novel moves and ideas. Open the book at random and novelties just leap out of the page!”
GM Glenn Flear
