Pert, Playing the Trompowsky (geb.)
An Attacking Repertoire
264 S., geb., 2013
The Trompowsky, 1.d4 Nf6 2.Bg5, has risen from relative obscurity a few decades ago and is now regarded as a serious attempt to put Black under pressure in the opening. As early as the second move, White imposes his will and forces his opponent to make a decision concerning the kngith on f6.
In this book, IM Richard Pert shares the knowledge and understanding he has developed through fifteen years of studying and playing the Trompowsky. The emphasis is on active and aggressive lines for White, with at least two recommendations provided against most of Black's major defensive set-upsa.
While the Trompowsky is the main focus of the book, the author also covers two related systems: the dangerous 2.Bg5 against the Dutch Defence, and the quirky Pseudo-Trompowksy 1.d4 d5 2.Bg5.
