'Open Games' refer to a myriad of popular openings arising after 1 e4 e5: the Italian Game, the Scotch, the King's Gambit, the Evans Gambit, the Vienna Gam, the Bishop's Opening, the Four Knights, the Petroff, the Phildor and much more besides. In this book, Glenn Flear goes back to basics, introducing the key moves and ideas within these openings and taking care to explain the reasoning behind them - something that has often been neglected or taken for granted in other works. He places particular emphasis on the lines that players are most likely to face.
The Starting Out series has firmly established itself as the leading guide to studying openings for up-and-coming chess players. These books are ideal for enthusiasts who don't necessarily have extensive knowledge of the openings in question and who wish to appreciate the essential principles behind them.
