Description
The French Defence is one of the most popular openings at every level — from club player to grandmaster. Solid against 1.e4 yet rich in counterplay and initiative, it's an opening you can build a lifetime repertoire around.
In this first volume of a two-part Fritz Trainer series, former FIDE World Champion and elite trainer GM Rustam Kasimdzhanov — second to both Vishy Anand and Fabiano Caruana — delivers a complete, deeply prepared Black repertoire after 1.e4 e6.
Volume 1 covers the Classical Variation with 3.Nc3 Nf6, including:
- 3.Nc3 Nf6 4.e5 (Steinitz/Advance)
- 3.Nc3 Nf6 4.Bg5 (Classical main line)
- 3.Nc3 Nf6 sidelines
- Video running time: 5 hours
- Instructor: GM Rustam Kasimdzhanov (former FIDE World Champion)
