A friendly guide to the open games – everything after 1 e4 e5 except the Ruy Lopez.The open games – the positions reached after 1 e4 e5 – are where most players first learn their chess, yet they remain important at every level. In this book from Everyman's Starting Out series, grandmaster Glenn Flear guides the reader through the Italian Game, Scotch, Two Knights, Vienna, King's Gambit and the other systems that can arise (leaving aside the Ruy Lopez), explaining the typical plans and structures for both sides. The material is presented with the diagrams, tips, warnings and notes that make the series so accessible, making it an ideal way to understand this classical battleground. Glenn Flear is an English grandmaster and a highly respected author.
