ABC of Chess Middlegames

The middlegame is the most complicated part of chess. There are so many opportunities for strategy, combinations or mating attacks that you can quickly get lost in the jungle of possibilities. On this middlegame CD Gary Gauthier explains all the basic themes with the help of selected master games. The games are annotated and explained in a way that makes it possible for even the rank amateur to follow, while graphic commentary enables you to grasp the main ideas at a glance.

The ABC of the chess middlegames consists of three parts. The sections on strategy and tactics lay the foundation for a deeper understanding of the middlegame. In a training database you can check your progress by solving practical positions and scoring points for successful attempts. Each chapter has a video clip with an introduction by chess trainer Grandmaster Daniel King.

The middlegame CD will improve your playing abilities substantially and at the same time provide you with an entertaining excursion into the world of chess.
