Description: There is a worldwide problem that is creating all sorts of difficulties. We have extended our shipping window to 20 days to give us time to solve these problems. Like the rest of the world we are hoping to get back to normal soon. Once upon a time there was an adventurous fellow named Julian Hodgson, a British chess master. He left his homeland to play in a series of chess tournaments in Spain. He discovered that Spanish masters were frequently devotees of an opening pioneered by a Brazilian master, Oscar Trompowsky: 1. d4 Nf6 2. Bg5. This tricky and little-played opening is rife with tricks; Korchnoi used it the desperate hours of Game 19 of his 1974 match with Karpov. Hodgson became so enamored of the virtues of the opening that he took it up himself on his return to Britain. The book is written by the legendary grandmaster Andrew Soltis.
