Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 93 pages with diagrams. Octavo (9" x 6") bound in original publisher's pictorial stapled wrappers. First edition. The Latvian Gambit (or Greco Countergambit) is a chess opening characterized by the moves: 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 f5?! It is one of the oldest chess openings, having been analyzed in the 17th century by Gioachino Greco, after whom it is sometimes named. The opening has the appearance of a King's Gambit with colors reversed. It is a nocuous but objectively dubious opening for Black, that often leads to wild and tricky positions. Condition: Edge wear, corners bumped, rubbed and creased, some toning to wrappers, occasional marginalia else about very good.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 72 pages with diagrams and bibliography. Octavo (9" x 6") bound in original publisher's stapled pictorial wrappers. Addendum laid in. First edition. The Taimanov Sicilian (also called the Paulsen Sicilian) is a variation of the Sicilian Defense, beginning with the moves 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. d4 cxd4 4. Nxd4 e6 5. Nc3 Qc7. Unlike many other Sicilian lines, black leaves an open diagonal for the dark-squared bishop to develop on. Black also places the queen on the semi-open c-file. The queen is also a good guardian of the e5-square in the Taimanov Sicilian, preventing an early e4-e5 by white in some cases! Condition: Some age toning to edges, corners bumped and rubbed else very good.
