Description
Book SynopsisIn volume 2 Dutch International Master Herman Grooten provides the full coverage of the Queen's Gambit Structures. As usual his instructive material is impressive, explaining in detail all possible plans for White and Black, making this book indispensable if you want to understand these typical structures or play this opening.
Trade ReviewThe concept is extremely attractive to amateur players: whatever your strength, it carries the promise of learning or revising some general strategic knowledge in an easy way. GM Mathew Sadler, New In Chess Magazine 05/19.
In summary, this book will be invaluable to any serious student of the Queen’s Gambit, particularly the Exchange Variation and Carlsbad structures. Any player who plays d4 but does not play a quick c4 follow-up (for example, the currently trendy London System followers) may well be sufficiently enthused to “upgrade” their Queen’s Pawn opening to a Queen’s Gambit. The emphasis on understanding via pawn structure analysis will help any student of chess even if do not play 1.d4. Highly recommended !
