The Scandinavian Defence: Winning with 2...Nf6: A Chess Repertoire for Black
()
About this ebook
A compact, complete repertoire for Black based on 1.e4 d5 2.exd5 Nf6 (the Modern Scandinavian Defence) featuring solid, lesser-known lines like 3.d4 Nxd5 4.c4 Nf6, 3.Bb5+ Nbd7, and 3.c4 c6 rather than over-optimistic gambits. The short analysis is sufficient to get you safely out of the opening with good-enough positions so that you can "just play chess".
