Bird's Opening is an underrated and dynamic choice for White that immediately directs the game into relatively unexplored territory, setting Black players early problems and forcing them to think for themselves rather than having the luxury of relying on the theory of more mainstream openings. It's also a very flexible option that can lead to both sharp gambit play, such as the notorious From's Gambit, as well as quieter positional lines. In this book International Master Timothy Taylor unearths the secrets of Bird's Opening and its many deviations. Using illustrative games, he examines tactical and positional ideas for both colours and recommends the best paths in both the "main lines" and the lesser-trodden paths. A study of this book will give readers the required knowledge and confidence to play the Bird's Opening with either color. >Written by a Bird's Opening expert >A complete up-to-date survey on an active chess opening >Ideal for club and tournament players Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

Taylor writes for club players who play over the board, where things like the element of surprise and who is better prepared matter. Taylor writes with enthusiasm for his subject, be it pawn sacrifices or his choice of perhaps less commonly found openings and variations. I think he is trying to arm his reader with confidence in his preparation as much as he is trying to arm his reader with playable variations. You do need both to win at chess consistently.
With that in mind, I don't mind if Taylor's enthusiasm out paces the solidity of the lines he's offering. He is a unique writer, imho, offering often original analysis. He takes chances. His readers should be willing to do the same. (
