About this product

A player's main goals for the opening are clear: to control the center, set up a flexible pawn structure, develop the pieces, sometimes even accomplish a direct attack. But there are so many complicated variations--how can you memorize them all?

You can't--and you don't have to! If you understand the basic goals of the opening you're playing, you will know which moves fit logically into its overall scheme. this classic, best-selling volume, now completely reset in modern algebraic notation, you need to know to play the opening successfully.

International Grandmaster Reuben Fine was one of the world's greatest players and a masterful theoretician. His books, including Basic Chess Endings and The Middle Game of Chess, are among the all-time classics of the literature.
