Description
Encyclopaedia of Chess Openings Monograph English opening (ECO A13)
Half a century ago the first edition of the Encyclopaedia of Chess Openings was released, as a truly unique, ground-breaking tome. Such monumental work was a logical continuation to the Informant series which came to life a few years earlier. Chess Informant introduced a completely revolutionary system of chess signs, and also created the classification of chess openings, according to codes (ECO codes). Today Chess Informant’s ECO Codes and System of Signs are integral parts of the universal chess culture and heritage.
Over the years, and subsequent editions of five ECO tomes (A, B, C, D and E) all the greatest chess players and analysts contributed to the Encyclopaedias, each focusing on the sections which they were most acquainted with, producing astounding analyses and recommendations.
After a long time we are launching a precious edition on the market in the well-known guise of our traditional values and passion for chess. We hope to trigger curiosity and desire of chess players around the globe to have it as an essential piece in their library, as well as a valuable resource in preparing for tournament battles.
Is there comprehensiveness in the presentation of the material? Yes!
Are the displayed plans and lines of play of interest for every chess player? Yes!
Is it useful for coaches in their work with young players? Yes!
Everything valuable that has been played in the last 120 years is included in this monograph. The most renowned chess masters have found their place in it as well as the games with commentary from our well-known edition "Chess Informant".
We believe that this book will meet expectations of many and chess community in general.
