It was the chess legend Philidor who wrote: 'The pawns are the soul
of chess', and yet it is these modest infantrymen who are always
the first to die for the cause. Pawn sacrifices are incredibly
common in chess games, and yet for some unknown reason they have
been rather neglected in chess literature... until now.In this
pioneering work, Timothy Taylor carries out an in-depth study of
this significant subject. Using an abundance of instructive
examples, Taylor uncovers the secrets of pawn sacrifices,
highlighting the many reasons for their success, indicating the
ideal situations in which pawn sacrifices work, as well as showing
positions in which they are not so effective. The ability to handle
pawn sacrifices is one of the most important skills in chess, and
enhancing this skill will undoubtedly improve your understanding
and results. This book will show you how to do this. *An
enlightening and entertaining guide to pawn sacrifices*Covers
essential tactical and positional ideas*Written by a
battle-hardened professional player
