Are you a Gambiteer?

If the answer to these questions is 'yes' then these books are  for you!

In his two-volume Gambiteer series, opening expert Nigel Davies produces a complete opening repertoire which is certainly not for the faint-hearted: uncompromising and wild attacking ideas for both colours. 

Are you ready for the battle? Then cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war!

Volume I deals with a gambit-style approach for White; the second volume will concentrate on an ambitious black repertoire.

All of the opening lines Davies advocates in this book lead to positions of open warfare, where sharp, tactical play completely dominates dreary positional subtleties.

Volume II  produces an ambitious and uncompromising repertoire for Black. The two main choices are the Albin Counter Gambit and the Schliemann Gambit. 

As gambits go they are the pick of the crop, having been tried and tested by some of the World's most inventive players. All of the opening lines Davies advocates lead to positions of open warfare, where sharp, tactical play completely dominates dreary, positional subtleties.

* Includes an armoury of aggressive ideas for Black
* Features chess at its most bloodthirsty
* Ideal for the attack-minded player
