Semi-Slav

Rate this book
The Semi-Slav defence has been one of Black's most reliable defences to the queen's pawn since the 1920's. Now, it is fashionable both at grandmaster level and with club and tournament players. Here, Grandmaster Matthew Sadler explains the strategy and tactics of this dynamic opening. Through the use of model games for both sides, the author provides a thorough grounding in the key ideas.

I'm a fan of Sadler and this book contributed to my love of the Semi-Slav. Not as up to date as Lars Schandorff's GM Repertoire opus but still a brilliant book if you want to know the basic plans and ideas.
