The French Defence is an ideal opening for the club chess player, the strategic plan of attacking the black centre being common to many lines. The author of this book concentrates on explaining the plans for both sides, with illustrative games throughout, and has thoroughly researched all available material. Typical themes such as black's bad bishop, blocked centre and kingside attacks are regularly highlighted. The author of this book is a former European Junior Champion and is now an International Master.
