The Gambit Guide to the Torre Attack [Paperback]

Graham Burgess (Author)
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (2 customer reviews)


Available from these sellers.



Book Description

December 1, 1999
The Torre Attack is a very attractive system for White as it allows him/her to set the agenda from the outset, preventing many counterattacking systems. It has quick-strike potential if Black is careless or unfamiliar with the subtleties.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Starting Point To Study The Torre Attack, August 20, 2010
This review is from: The Gambit Guide to the Torre Attack (Paperback)
I just got a copy of this Gambit Guide to The Torre Attack and have just started to scratch the surface of the excellent material on the Torre Attack contained in this book. There are numerous game examples with excellent annotations for the serious student of the Torre Attack to play through. The author has an excellent writing style and does an exceptional job in discussing the Torre Attack and it's various variations. If you are serious about learning the Torree Attack, I can highly recommend this book.
