Book Synopsis English Opening A10-39 by : Bill Harvey
Download or read book English Opening A10-39 written by Bill Harvey and published by . This book was released on 2017-07-30 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The English Opening is named for its first proponent, the English unofficial world champion Howard Staunton. It's popularity grew slowly but it's regularly faced in World Championship matches now and all of the top 20 rated players in the world have chosen it to play as White at least a few times in the last five years. Perhaps its popularity is due to being a flank opening. If you know where White will castle, uncertainty is reduced and tactics begin to outweigh strategy.This volume is indexed by ECO classification so that the reader can focus on his or her area of expertise. Each of these sections contains their own pitfalls and traps. It is more fruitful to study the tactics of an opening you might encounter as White or Black than to study the knight fork, pin or skewer, one tactic at a time. When the type of tactic is provided with the puzzle, it is already half solved. Study the more common tactics found within an opening you face and you will come away with an understanding of the real dynamics of the opening and pick up tactics you can already use.

This first full-scale biography of Nimzowitsch chronicles his early life in Denmark, his family and education, and his fascination with the game that would become the focus of his life. Also included are explorations of his tournament games and records, his dispute with influential chess teacher Siegbert Tarrasch, and his role in the development of Hypermodern Chess. With detailed accounts of nearly 450 games and the only narrative of Nimzowitsch from 1914 to 1924, a period formerly cloaked in mystery, this volume offers the most thorough profile available of one of chess's greatest innovators.

Download or read book English Tactics written by Tim Sawyer and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-21 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This English Tactics chess book gives you 500 positions from actual English Opening 1.c4 games that use combinations and checkmates. This opening has many tactical ideas to help you win. Check it out. The English 1.c4 e5 is a Sicilian Defence 1.e4 c5 with the colors reversed. White has an extra tempo in the English. If Black aims for Indian Defenses 1.c4 Nf6, White may force only the preferred move orders. If Black prepares for a Queens Gambit position with 1.c4 e6 (and 2...d5), White can play an early d4 or delay it. When Black plays the Symmetrical 1.c4 c5, White strikes first. The Reti Opening 1.Nf3 may transpose to the English after a later c2-c4 move. The English Opening 1.c4 teaches you to fight with dynamic pawn structures. When you run toward tactics, you run toward success. Tactics help you to attack and defend accurately. This book shows ten winning positions played as recently as 2021.If you're good at tactics, you're good at chess. Opening theory may help you start well. Endgame knowledge may help you finish well. Tactical skill helps you win games and avoid losses. Tactics include pins, forks, removing the defender, attacking two pieces at the same time, and threatening to mate your opponent. The easiest path to tactical success is to recognize patterns that occur frequently in your favorite chess openings. Grandmasters know tactics and can easily slide from one opening to another. Everyone knows a few positions. Here's 500 in English Opening. Tactical knowledge helps you to improve your winning chances. Take your opponent's pieces. Pick off the pawns. Mate the king! The author played the English Opening as White hundreds of times. Of course, any active player will face the 1.c4 English as Black. The purpose of this book is to illustrate and teach 1.c4 English Tactics. I assume you can read algebraic chess notation. The White pieces are positioned at the bottom of each diagram. Above each diagram note who can move and win. It's either White to play a tactical move or Black to play a tactical move. Some moves are simple and easy. Others are subtle and tricky. That's chess - lots of obvious moves and lots of sneaky moves. Look at each diagram. It's a key position ready for a tactical win. The final moves are in bold with a brief analysis or comment. Chess engines were used to ensure the accuracy of the analysis. Follow the moves in your mind. The skill to visualize each new position without moving pieces improves your tactical strength. English Tactics is a companion to the author's Queens Gambit Tactics and to his Indian Tactics. White may play 1.c4 to influence the light squares in the center. It fits well with Nc3, g3 and Bg2. Or, an early d4 can transpose to the Queens Gambit or the Indian Defences. White may 1.Nf3 followed by c4 to reach an English. White has many reliable strategies to play for an advantage by controlling the center. Black always has reasonable options to fight back by employing what is called a hypermodern strategy. Black maintains flexibility with the plan to counterattack at the earliest possible moment. Either player may sacrifice a pawn, a piece, or the Exchange to speed up the attack. Any action in the center can turn quickly toward the kingside or the queenside. Games are arranged by ECO (Encyclopedia of Chess Openings) coding (A10 to A39) proceeding generally from less popular to more popular moves. Note: ECO updates their codes from time to time. I used the codes that games had in my database.Ideas in this book come from the English Opening but take note: These same tactical patterns work in other chess openings too. World champions play the English Opening 1.c4 from both sides. Improve your chess. Go for the win! Buy Indian Tactics now.

Download or read book Kurt Richter written by Alan McGowan and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2018-11-21 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: German master Kurt Richter (1900-1969) made significant contributions to the chess world as a player, and as an editor and author. Unassuming in real life, Richter was a fearsome opponent who expressed himself mainly through his over-the-board results, as well as through his chess journalism and literary output. He was responsible for several innovative openings, some of which gained renewed status in later years. This overview of his life and games sheds light on a player who should be better known, with much never-before-seen material. Examples of his entertaining writings on chess are included, some featuring his fictitious student opponent, Dr. Zabel. A wide selection of games illustrates the surprising combinations and brilliant style of play that earned him the title "The Executioner of Berlin."

Book Synopsis Dockside Reading by : Isabel Hofmeyr
Download or read book Dockside Reading written by Isabel Hofmeyr and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2021-11-08 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Dockside Reading Isabel Hofmeyr traces the relationships among print culture, colonialism, and the ocean through the institution of the British colonial Custom House. During the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, dockside customs officials would leaf through publications looking for obscenity, politically objectionable materials, or reprints of British copyrighted works, often dumping these condemned goods into the water. These practices, echoing other colonial imaginaries of the ocean as a space for erasing incriminating evidence of the violence of empire, informed later censorship regimes under apartheid in South Africa. By tracking printed matter from ship to shore, Hofmeyr shows how literary institutions like copyright and censorship were shaped by colonial control of coastal waters. Set in the environmental context of the colonial port city, Dockside Reading explores how imperialism colonizes water. Hofmeyr examines this theme through the concept of hydrocolonialism, which puts together land and sea, empire and environment.
