Pawn Structure Chess - Andrew SoltisPaperback, 286 pagesEvery chess player needs to know how to handle pawns. Pawns form the "playing fields" of chess games, a semi-permanent "structure" that can determine whether a player wins or loses. This wide-ranging guide to pawn structure teaches you where pieces are best placed, which pawns should be advanced further or exchanged, and why certain structures are good and others disastrous. This invaluable book is a major update of this chess classic, first published in 1975 and unavailable for several years.
