Back to Basics: Chess Openings: A Comprehensive Guide to Chess Openings and Opening Play
Because of the sheer volume of variations, possible transpositions, and ever-changing theory, chess openings can be overwhelming - even intimidating. This book is an introduction to understanding and playing chess openings.
This book is by no means an all-encompassing theory work, which means that there is a lot of theory that is not discussed in the notes. This is of course intentional. The book is written to entertain and inspire.
