The Complete French by GM Lev Psakhis Henry Holt (USA)/Batsford (UK) 272 pages! The French defence is an excellent choice of opening for club and tournament players, leading to exciting tactical play with black aggressively trying to undermine the white pawn centre. At Grandmaster level, the defence is a favourite of such players as Victor Korchnoi, Jan Timman and Nigel Short. GM Lev Psakhis concentrates on explaining the plans for both sides, using complete illustrative games to demonstrate the key concepts.
