About this title

From the Back Cover:

The English Opening is one of the most flexible and dynamic ways for White to begin the game, and it is no accident that it features in the repertoires of many leading grandmasters, including World Champion Garry Kasparov. The Latvian grandmaster Vladimir Bagirov has worked through an immense amount of practical material to produce a thoroughly professional and up-to-date guide to the most topical variations of this popular opening. This volume covers all variations where Black defends against 1 c4 with the classical 1...e5 or the 'Indian': 1...Nf6. The companion volume English Opening: Symmetrical deals with defenses commensing 1...c5.
