THE PIRC: MOVE BY MOVE/NIGEL DAVIES

Description

The Pirc Defence is a dynamic counter-attacking option for Black. The initial strategy is to allow White to construct an impressive-looking pawn centre, but the plan is to attack this centre later on with both pieces and pawns, with the ultimate aim of destroying it completely. This ambitious and provocative approach by Black carries some risk but it can often lead to rich rewards, and the Pirc has always been popular among players who are aiming for more than just dry equality. In this book, Grandmaster Nigel Davies invites you to join him in a study of the Pirc Defence and its many variations. He shares his experience and knowledge with the opening, provides repertoire options for Black, offers answers to all the key questions and tells you everything you need to know about playing the Pirc Defence.
