91 pages with diagrams and index. Octavo (8 1/4" x 5 1/4") bound in original publishers pictorial wrappers. Translated by Jim Marfia. First edition.
In this work Yakov Estrin presents a convincing case for players to adopt gambit play. Only by playing gambits will the chessplayer begin to understand that getting active positions with the possibility of landing combinative shots, will compensate him for the material sacrifices. Estrin presents concepts and line of ppay8 in every major opening as well as examples from his own games.
