The Two Knights' Defense

by Jon Edwards

Overview

Here's a fresh look at an old opening. After I found a significant improvement in the Fried Liver two years ago, I also took on the Two Knights Defense. Here you find many annotated games with recommendations primarily for White. The book examines all of the main lines including the Fritz/Uhlvastad and the Wilkes Barre.

Unlike many other inexpensive chess e-books, these are fully annotated in understandable, simple language. The profuse use of diagrams make these among the first chess books that you can read WITHOUT A BOARD at your side.
