Book Reviews of Mastering the Chess Openings: Unlocking the Mysteries of the Modern Chess Openings, Volume 2

Book Review: Insightful & Superb
Summary: 5 Stars

I have worked very hard to develop a repertoire using d4 opening however often as not the books that one relies on to develop ths opening repertoire start about 8 moves in and expect you to understand the basic strategy for the first 8 moves.

I've only just started studying the King's Indian and I find Mr. Watson's preparation to be truley masterful and brilliant. For the first time I actually understand what I am doing and what I'm trying to acheive. This book is ages ahead of many other books on the same subjects.
