Description: There is a worldwide problem that is creating all sorts of difficulties. We have extended our shipping window to 20 days to give us time to solve these problems. Like the rest of the world we are hoping to get back to normal soon. Playing the middle game is the hardest part of chess. You can navigate the opening on principle, and you can memorize the endings, but the middlegame is the true test of skill. A great sultan once lamented, "I who rule from the Indus in the east to the Andulaus in the west cannot manage 32 chessmen on a board two cubits by two." Ever chess player feels that way. John Littlewood has put together dozens of examples of middlegame play that teach things worth knowing. Worth every penny. The monograph is written by Me, Ed Yetman, III, ICCF Master. 34 games on middlegame themes: 1) Attacking the king in the center; 2) attacking the castled king with pieces; 3) pawn storms; 4) castling on opposite sides; 5) Queenside pawn majorities; 6) Pawn minority attacks; 7) Queenside v. Kingside play; 8) Switching the attack; 9) Attacking other targets. If you are a fan of the Netflix series The Queen's Gambit, these items are for you. We will add bonus material! Worth every penny.
