Reviews

Candidate Moves by Christian Bauer: A unique selection of games by a strong modern French Grandmaster featuring a variety of openings. Christian Bauer is one of the most original and adventurous players on the modern circuit today and the readers can hope to glean some insight as to how they can inject some freshness in their games as well. Unique to this book that I have never seen anywhere else is the examination of each game through white and black's perspective (Bauer will analyze the whole game through white's perspective, then reanalyze the whole game through the black lens).
