The Caro-Kann Defence has a well-deserved
and established reputation as an incredibly solid and, at the same time,
dynamic defence to 1 e4. The Caro-Kann appeals to all types of players,
but is especially useful to black players who prefer a sound platform on
which to build and who are resourceful in both defence and counter-attack.
Star players who enjoy using the Caro-Kann include Vishy Anand, Michael
Adams and the legendary Anatoly Karpov. In this easy-to-read guide,
Grandmaster Joe Gallagher goes back to the basics of the Caro-Kann,
studying the key principles of its many variations. Throughout the book
there is an abundance of notes, tips, warnings and exercises to help the
improving player, while important strategies, ideas and tactics for both
sides are clearly illustrated.
