Alekhine's Defense

Alekhine's Defence (Everyman Chess)

Nigel Davies

Alekhine's Defence is an often underrated counter to 1 e4. Black immediately challenges the white e-pawn and tries to lure White into constructing a big central position. Black's hope is that White's central installations will become unwieldy and vulnerable to a middlegame counterattack.

This edition contains up-to-date coverage of this dynamic counterattacking opening, and is written by one of England's leading chess coaches. An ideal battle manual for club and tournament players who want to play the Alekhine, or want to know what to do against it as White.
