The Next To Last Mistake - My New Book

Hello Chess Friends! 

It's been an eventful fall for me. In September, we welcomed my 2nd child and in October, I received the first copy of my new chess book! It's available for pre-order here. 

Four years ago I decided that there weren't enough books covering what to do when things aren't going your way. Some of my most memorable tournament games featured my recoveries from dubious positions and I felt like I had something to add to the discussion. The book is a mix of advice on how to play difficult positions as well as puzzles to help you practice finding your way out of danger. 

You can get a taste of the sorts of ideas I discuss in this video I recorded for Chess.com a couple of years ago. 

Here's an example of some of the defensive challenges you'll find in the book. Can you spot a draw for Black?
