50 Chess Traps in the Opening Volume 1 by Richard Cranston

Want to win at chess dramatically by setting cunning traps that bamboozle your unfortunate opponents and leave them quivering at your feet? The first of a two-volume series, '50 Chess Traps in the Opening, Volume 1' explains how to set traps - and how to avoid them - using an anthology of the more common chess openings.

According to FIDE master, James Moreby, the book offers something different from typical chess literature. Richard Cranston's approachable and engaging style captures the playful and cunning spirit of chess. The author answers two essential questions. How can I secure an early advantage with a trap and will my position be weakened as a result? How can I avoid traps set by my opponent, and how do I turn the ensuing position to my advantage?

His aim as both a teacher and a technical author was to make complex subjects understandable, and to make it easy for readers to apply what they had read into everyday use. He is now retired, and lives in Buckinghamshire.
