Former US Open Champion Timothy Taylor takes a contemporary look at one of Black's most ambitious counters to 1 e4, the Alekhine Defence. The Alekhine is a favourite among creative players such as Nigel Short, Vassily Ivanchuk and Hikaru Nakamura. This is a sharp opening in which Black attacks from the very beginning, luring White's central pawns forward in the expectation of destroying them later on.
All the key tactical and positional ideas for both players are covered, and crucial move-order nuances are highlighted. By studying the most important games and also drawing upon his own experience in the opening, Taylor constructs a practical repertoire for Black, ideal for the modern-day player. This book provides everything you need to know to play the Alekhine with confidence.
A dynamic repertoire for Black Provides answers to all of White's possibilities Ideal for improvers, club
