Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. 97 pages with diagrams and index. Octavo (8 1/2" x 5 1/4") bound in original publisher's pictorial wrappers. First edition. Dilworth Variation: 9.Bc5 10.Nbd2 0-0 11.Bc2 Nxf2. After this move, the continuation 12.Rxf2 f6 13.exf6 Bxf2+ 14.Kxf2 Qxf6 has scored well for Black, with many traps for the ill-prepared White player. The main line leads to unbalanced endgames which are difficult to play for both sides, though with a strong drawing tendency. Artur Yusupov is one of the few grandmasters who has adopted the Dilworth repeatedly.[47][48][49] White has the alternative move of 13.Nf1, which continues 13.Bxf2+ 14.Kxf2 fxe5 15.Kg1. The variation can also be reached via 11.Bxf2, with the line 12.Rxf2 Nxf2 13.Kxf2 f6 14.exf6 Qxf6 reaching the same position as the main line, though White can instead play 14.Nf1 or 14.Kg1 to transpose to the 13.Nf1 line.

Soft cover. Condizione: Near Fine. 100 pages with diagrams and index. Octavo (8 1/2" x 5 1/4") bound in original publisher's pictorial wrappers. First edition. The Classical Variation of the Schliemann Defense is one of the most exciting and complicated openings in all of chess. Periodically 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 f5 4.Nc3 fxe4 5.Nxe5 d5!? 6.Nxe5 fxe4 7.Nxc6 Qg5 is refuted, but it keeps on coming back to life and is even seen at the highest levels of the tournament play. The middlegames are characterized by ferocious attacks on both kings. In the event that a decisive result is not achieved early in the game, fascinating endgames with rooks and minor pieces arise, often with Black enjoying a powerful passed pawn on the e-file. In this book, Grandmaster Leonid Shamkovich and National Master Eric Schiller continue their examination of this variation, which they have been writing about for over a dozen years. They present much new analysis and critically review the many publications which have appeared in recent years. No fan of the Schliemann should be without this book, and players of the Spanish Game (Ruy Lopez) will want it in their arsenal if they dare to enter the main lines. Condition: Near fine.…

Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. 117 pages with diagrams. Octavo (8 1/2" x 5 1/4") bound in original publisher's pictorial wrappers. First edition. This books is designed to teach the aspiring chessplayer how to build an attack from the opening. It is based on the games of Rudolph Spielmann, one of the greatest attacking players of all time. All of the games belong to the category of the Open Game, characterized by the initial moves 1.e4 e5. One hundred games have been selected to illustrate not only how to carry out in attack, but how to build an attack from the opening. I have chosen to concentrate on the Open game because it is here that the attacking motifs are most clearly illustrated, and the types of defensive mistakes must closely reflect those made by beginner and intermediate players. Classical openings, and particular the Open games, are the best foundation for an aspiring chessplayer. In fact, almost all World Champions have spent a great deal of time exploring both sides of these openings, which were seen even in the World Championship match between Gary Kasparov and Viswanathan Anand. It is well-known that the most instructive games for novices are those which involve players from the Classical and Romantic periods of chess, roughly between 1890 and 1930. This is due to the general lack of defensive technique seen in those games. Because one side often lets an attack succeed, either through ignorance of the threat or failure to appreciate the positional factors of the game, we can see how an attack is built and carried out in its pure form. In more recent games, direct attack usually does not succeed because players are better schooled in the art of defense, On the other hand, opportunities for Romantic play still appear.
