5.0 out of 5 stars
All-time classic,
By johnnyqb (United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Chess Middlegame Planning (Paperback)
I have at various times owned, bought and sold about 1,000 chess books, yet Middlegame Planning by ROmanovsky is one chess book I will never sell. It is an utter and absolute classic on the middlegame. It presents complete annotated games, mostly classics by Alekhine, Steinitz, Lasker, Capablanca, etc., and with wonderfully lucid and succinct annotations explains the strategy of the game as it unfolds at each stage. He starts right from the opening. This is a perfect book if you have worked through the Silman books, How to Reassess and The Amateur's Mind, and you are looking for raw material of annotated games to apply what you have learned. Everything about this book is just great: the production, the fonts, the diagrams, the binding, but mostly the writing! I consider this an absolutely essential part of my chess library, as well as its companion Middlegame Combinations. If you see one here used, BUY IT!

This review is from: Chess Middlegame Planning (Paperback)
Well organized, good explanations, BUT not for under 1500.I am b/w 1300 and 1400, so maybe I failed to see some things, but this book seemed to be "tutorial". However, explanations are good. Very well organized! But, somehow I thought it was comprehensive.
