Description
Building a reliable opening repertoire can be a challenging task. With numerous lines to choose from, it's easy to get caught up in trying out tricky variations that may not stand the test of time. However, this approach often leads to a lack of confidence and a reliance on unproven openings. To address this issue, Everyman Chess presents two comprehensive guides: Starting Out with 1 e4! and Starting Out with 1 d4!. Written by opening experts John Cox and Neil McDonald, these books provide a strong and trustworthy repertoire for players based on the popular opening moves 1 e4 and 1 d4. The recommended lines have been employed by Grandmasters and are regularly used in competitive chess. By reading these books, improving players will gain the confidence to play these variations against all strengths of player, providing them with reliable opening armoury for years to come. With notes, tips, and warnings throughout, Everyman Chess's distinctive Starting Out style makes these guides an ideal resource for anyone looking to improve their game.
