Description
Former US Open Champion Timothy Taylor presents a complete repertoire for White against the most popular opening in chess — the Sicilian Defence. Taylor's repertoire is built around the Open Sicilian with the classical Be2 lines, popularized by the success of former World Champion Anatoly Karpov. These lines are easy to learn and generally lead to solid positional play — but with a drop of poison.
Taylor covers all Sicilian variations, examines the most important games, studies the main plans and tactics for both sides in depth, and highlights the key practical issues.
