"I consider this book to be a real manual, original in its conception and excellent in its execution. It not only teaches you how to play a specific variation of the French Defence, but it also helps you understand many strategic ideas and their practical application in the middlegame, which for the majority of players is even more important." --Anatoly Karpov, 12th world chess champion, "I consider this book to be a real manual, original in its conception and excellent in its execution.

    There were some minor creases/warping in the cover and since the book was packaged in a cardboard box with extra packing materials to minimize potential damage in shipping, the condition of the cover was not caused by any USPS materials handling machines, but it still arrived in Very Good condition.
