Trade Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Second Printing. 159 Pages Including Index of Variations and an Index of Games. No marks and interior text and illustration pages are bright, tight, and white. The French Defense remains one of the most popular strategies to use against White King's pawn opening; top class grandmasters such as Korchnoi, Morozevich, Bareev, and Short continue to practice it with success. Grandmaster Lev Psakhis, a former Soviet champion who has written extensively on this gambit, now shows how to counter it. In the second volume of his three-part series on the French Defense, he covers the aggressive 1 e4 e6 2 d4 d5 3 e5 tactic, as well as a number of other "Anti-French" lines, including the King's Indian Attack and Exchange variations. A wealth of illustrated games as well as up-to-date theory also provide valuable instruction that will help chess players master these winning techniques.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. Reprint. First published in 1935, this is a Batsford reissue of 2011. Some edge wear and chipping to top and bottom of classic Batsford jacket and spine, 2" split to bottom corner of front jacket, corners slightly bruised, not price clipped (original price 7s 6d, price on back cover £16.99), some faint grubby fingerprints to unlaminated back jacket, internally clean tight and square, overall a reasonable copy. 116pp, illustrated. A reissue of a truly classic title on the Batsford backlist. First published in 1935, it is a wonderful snapshot of our capital before the Second World War, and a charming insight into our attitudes to urban life back in the Thirties. Our guide Paul Cohen-Portheim offers us his interpretation of life in London through her people, her buildings and her history. Paul Cohen-Portheim (1880-1932), was an Austrian artist and travel writer. He was a proficient linguist and spoke a half a dozen European languages fluently. When World War I broke out, he was painting in Devonshire, and found himself interned for the length of the war. This gave him time to read, observe and meditate, especially on his enforced new home. 'The Spirit of London' was the last thing to be published after his sudden death in 1932. Quite scarce, even in this later reissue. Jacket by Brian Cook (illustratore).…
