Chess Explained: The Meran Semi-Slav

2007 y.
Publisher: Gambit Publications
Description: Chess Explained books provide an understanding of an opening and the middlegames to which it leads, enabling you to find the right moves and plans in your own games. It is as if you were sitting at the board with a chess coach answering your questions about the plans for both sides, the ideas behind particular moves, and what specific knowledge you need to have. Belying its solid classical appearance, the Semi-Slav is one of Black`s most aggressive responses when White opens with the queen`s pawn. The Meran is its traditional main line, and often leads to chaotic positions of immense strategic and tactical richness. This is territory where the player who is better prepared and has a superior `feel` for the nuances will typically emerge victorious, even against a stronger opponent. Vera draws upon decades of personal experience to explain the underlying logic of the Meran and related lines, and to pick out the key features of positions that to the untrained eye might appear… [detailed...]

Bruce Pandolfini
Chess Openings: Traps And Zaps

1989 y.
Publisher: Fireside
Description: Fireside Chess Library In the first completely instructional book ever written on chess openings, National Master Bruce Pandolfini teaches players how to take charge of the game`s crucial opening phase. Of the three traditional phases of chess play -- the opening, the middle-game and the endgame -- the opening is the phase average players confront most often. Unfortunately, though, many openings are not completed successfully, partly because until now most opening instruction has consisted of tables of tournament level moves that offer no explanations for the reasons behind them. Consequently, these classical opening patterns can serve as little more than references to the average player. In Chess Openings: Traps and Zaps, Bruce Pandolfini uses his unique `crime and punishment` approach to provide all the previously missing explanation, instruction, practical analyses, and much, much more. The book consists of 202 short `openers` typical of average… [detailed...]

Chesterton and the Romance of Orthodoxy: The Making of GKC, 1874-1908

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: On the publication of Orthodoxy in 1908, Wilfrid Ward hailed G. K. Chesterton as a prophetic figure whose thought was to be classed with that Burke, Butler, Coleridge, and John Henry Newman. When Chesterton died in 1936, T. S. Eliot pronounced that `Chesterton`s social and economic ideas were the ideas for his time that were fundamentally Christian and Catholic`. But how did he come by these ideas? Eliot noted that Chesterton attached `significance also to his development, to his beginnings as well as to his ends, and to the movement from one to the other`. It is on that development that this book is focused. The Making of GKC is an exploration of G.K.Chesterton`s imaginative and spiritual development, from his early childhood in the 1870s to his intellectual maturity in the first decade of the twentieth century. William Oddie draws extensively on Chesterton`s unpublished letters and notebooks, his journalism, and his early classic writings, to reveal the writer in his own words. In… [detailed...]

Description: In the period following the horrors and hardships of World War II there was a hardy group of citizens living in a small village known as Chesterville, a suburb of Tupelo, Mississippi. It was a period in which its citizens were playing `catch up` from the trials and tribulations of the preceding era, a `catch up` both mentally and economically. The war had taken its toll on the life style of the good citizens of the little village, citizens who prior the World War II had been struggling to recoup a more comfortable life style following the Civil War, a war in which some of its battles had been fought at the very doorstep of the small community. The prohibition of the sale of alcoholic beverages had brought into being a new life style in big cities such as New York and Chicago, a life style which came to be called the `Roaring Twenties`. That could not in any sense of the word refer to life in Chesterville where the lifestyle was far from being exciting. Oh, to be sure, prohibition… [detailed...]
