The French Defense is one of the most popular chess openings among players of all levels. This book, by an author with a formidable reputation for producing top-quality works on opening theory, provides detailed coverage of the French with 3 Nc3, including the critical Winawer (or Nimzowitsch) variation. This is the first of two planned volumes by Pedersen on the French, and covers all lines after 3 Nc3, including the Winawer, Classical (including the Steinitz), MacCutcheon, and Guimard Variations. It also includes a full discussion of 3...dxe4, a move that has found favor among those seeking to avoid theory. Sure to become a classic work on this sound and resiliant defense!
