Description
A comprehensive guide to one of chess's most fundamental concepts, Open Files explores the strategy and tactics associated with opening files in chess. First published in 1981, this book was initially banned in its country of origin due to its co-author's departure for the West. Now re-released with modern games by world-class players, the book provides a clear and systematic explanation of how files are opened, blocked, occupied, and exploited. The authors' introduction lays the theoretical foundations, followed by carefully selected illustrative games where the open file is the decisive factor. Key positions are assessed verbally, offering valuable insight into how strong chessplayers think. This revised edition offers a unique opportunity to learn from the original authors themselves, ensuring that readers gain a deep understanding of this essential aspect of chess strategy.
