The Closed Sicilian is an ideal weapon for players who wish for an aggressive way to attack the Sicilian but have neither the time nor the inclination to learn the seemingly endless mountains of opening theory associated with Open Sicilians. White's play is logical and the basic strategies are simple to master, while the deliberate and slow burning attack on Black's king appeals to many. In "Starting Out: Closed Sicilian", Richard Palliser examines this popular opening at a fundamental level, presenting the vital early moves and ideas for both sides and taking care to explain the reasoning behind them. It is written by an opening expert. It concentrates on the key principles of the Closed Sicilian. It is ideal for the improving player.
