The Italian Renaissance - I: Move Orders, Tricks and Alternatives by Martyn Kravtsiv (twarda okładka)

Wydanie w twardej okładce. Język angielski.
With the seemingly bulletproof Berlin Wall and Marshall Attack continuing to thwart Whites best efforts to find an advantage in the Ruy Lopez, many top players have incorporated the Italian Game (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4) along with the related Bishops Opening (2.Bc4) into their repertoires. In this two-volume work, GM Martyn Kravtsiv shares his insights on this Italian Renaissance from Whites perspective.

The first topic is the Bishops Opening, which can be used as an Anti-Petroff move order as well as a weapon in its own right. 1.e4 e5 2.Bc4 may or may not transpose to the main Italian lines, and it is useful to have it in your arsenal in order to choose the most effective sequence against each opponent.

Next is the more popular 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3. Before reaching the Italian, White must be ready to deal with the Petroff Defence (2...Nf6). Kravtsiv advocates the well-regarded 3.Nxe5 d6 4.Nf3 Nxe4 5.Nc3 variation, offering an array of weapons to cause problems for Black, including a large number of untested yet dangerous ideas. The Italian Game will be covered in the second volume.

Martyn Kravtsiv is a Ukrainian Grandmaster with a peak rating of 2685, with expert knowledge and experience of 1.e4.

Small Steps to Giant Improvement by Sam Shankland (twarda okładka)

Książka wydana w języku angielskim. Twarda okładka.   In chess you cannot take your move back, but you can always return a misplaced piece to its former square at the cost of some time. Pawns on the other hand can never move backwards, making pawn moves truly permanent decisions. This irreversibility makes Pawn Play among the most difficult aspects of chess strategy, which is one reason few books have been written about this topic – and some that have are almost incomprehensible.

Wydanie w twardej okładce, wersja językowa - angielska. When Axel Smith was chasing his final Grandmaster norm, he decided he needed a change in his White opening repertoire.
