Descripción

GM Gawain Jones

Compared with 10 or 15 years ago, the level of – for example – opening books is astonishingly high. Books like Negi’s series on 1.e4 or Gawain Jones’ excellent and profound effort on the Dragon in which top-class Grandmasters reveal secrets and consistently give concrete evaluations of positions (instead of the infamous ‘unclear’ or ‘with compensation’) were unheard of before.

The Dragon Volume One

Jones explains all this and more in a clear and easy to read style that makes the long theoretical lines less intimidating. Concrete analysis gets a decided preference, but there is still plenty of explanatory prose to guide the reader….

This book is highly recommended for all who play the Dragon or who are thinking of taking it up
