That sort of reading would be a pretty daunting task, but I think this book differs from most others because of its use of a lot of sample games. devoted to various chess openings." - Steve Goldberg (2010) Here is a review:įor a bunch of sample games, one could consider: If I remember correctly, it was written around 1999. Seirawan's Winning Chess Openings is not as comprehensive as FCO, but it is probably a lot more readable. If one is not too concerned with detail, perhaps it is not so important to have a recent update. There are some not-so-detailed books that attempt to describe most openings (without tables of moves), but I think the last of those was about eight years ago. I am not sure what the desired purpose is here, but I think the common perception is that it is no longer practical to publish a detailed reference in book form for all oenings. If one really wants a detailed general opening reference, I think chessbase sells some sort of updated computer disk from time to time. Perhaps, Small Encyclopaedia of Chess Openings is the last book of this type that we will ever see.
