THE LONDON SYSTEM IN 12 PRACTICAL LESSONS - OSC...

The London System is being played by an ever increasing number of players  and it's easy to see
why. Against virtually every Black defence after 1.d4 it offers White an easy-to-learn and
reliable set of lines. In the process  White has interesting choices between strategic or more
aggressive approaches  while avoiding loads of opening theory. Ideal for players who don't have
much time to study.Creative elite players such as Alexander Grischuk  Baadur Jobava  Richard
Rapport and even World Champion Magnus Carlsen have the London in their repertoire.Following
the enormous success of The Agile London System  the book he co-authored in 2016  Oscar de
Prado revisits his favourite opening. The general focus is less on theory and has a more
practical approach although he does present recently played games and some important
theoretical updates. De Prado avoids long and complicated variations and concentrates on
explaining straightforward plans  clear-cut strategies and standard manoeuvres.If you follow De
Prado's lessons you are unlikely to face surprises or to emerge from the opening in a worse
position  and you will learn to make the right middlegame choices. Studying this book is the
most efficient way to acquaint yourself with a flexible chess opening that is easy to learn and
hard to counter.Oscar de Prado Rodriguez (1973) is a FIDE Master from Spain. He has
successfully been playing the London System for many years. In 2016 he published  together with
co-author Alfonso Romero  the acclaimed The Agile London System.
