Description
The Exhilarating Elephant Gambit - Aabling-Thomsen & Jensen
The Elephant Gambit is perhaps the boldest opening in all of chess theory. By meeting 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 with 2...d5!?, Black takes the fight to his opponent and aims to seize the initiative as early as possible.
The Exhilarating Elephant Gambit offers a complete repertoire for
Black, based on 3.exd5 Bd6 or 3.Nxe5 Bd6 4.d4 dxe4. In return for the
sacrificed pawn, Black ensures himself of quick and active development
with most of his pieces pointing menacingly towards the enemy kingside.
Attacking and other tactical resources abound, with a future ...e4-e3
advance often mauling White’s position like an Elephant’s tusk. With
original analysis of all variations and improvements against all
published “refutations”, this book contains everything you need to
shock, surprise and stampede your opponents.
