It.s not easy finding a good opening to play against 1 e4, especially if you don.t have endless time available
to study the latest theoretical developments. If you choose fashionable openings, it.s often a necessity to keep
pace with modern theory if you want to succeed with Black.

This book provides a solution. Neil McDonald advocates his favourite opening . the very popular French Defence .
but chooses a repertoire for Black that requires only the minimum amount of move memorization. The lines he
selects are very easy to learn and play . perfect for those who are unwilling to be slaves to opening theory.
But there.s also something here for more experienced players, as McDonald goes on to offer a second repertoire
based on counter-attacking lines against 3 Nc3 and 3 Nd2.

*An easy-to-learn defence against 1 e4
*Provides solutions to all of White.s options
*Written by a world-renowned expert on the French
*Ideal for improvers, club players and tournament players
