Sneak Preview of Coming Book

Zukertort

HI everyone.

I just wanted to let people know that a sneak preview of my second book on the Colle-Zukertort, Queen-pawn-attacking repertoire is available on the Excerpts Page of my website: www.zukertort.com

Very interesting! Any "guesstimates" of when it will be available?

Well, since I'm working on it and a completely different project [www.biblicalheresy.com] it might be February before it is out.

Not too bad! Thank you for the Update.

Sorry for nagging but how is the chess project developing?

Hey there,

So it turns out that the book got delayed (obviously), but it really is almost ready. I still think I can make a June 15th release date.

It has 7 modules and is useful to both types of Colle System players:

1. Move Order Quandaries

2. Slaying the b7-monster [dealing with an early Q-side fianchetto]

3. Putting down an errant Knight [dealing with an early ...Ne4]

4. The Kite of Doom [attacking strategies for a particular common setup, including detailed coverage of the double-Bishop sacrifice

5. The Game-Changing Retreat [dealing with ...Nfd7, threatening ...f6, ...f5, or Nxe5]

6. Charge!! [When to play g4!?]

7. Classic Greek Gifts (the most detailed discussion of Bxh7+! ever).

210-220 pages.

The book was finished about a week ago and has been sent into the printer.

It turned into a 1 pound behemoth [258 large pages.]

Great News!

It took a while longer before it was officially available on Amazon, but the book (The Moment of Zuke: Critical Positions and Pivotal Decisions for Colle System Players) is now available.  www.colle-system.com has more details.
