Alekhine's Defence (1...Nf6) is a sharp and often underrated counter to 1.e4.Black immediately challenges the white e-pawn and tries to lure White into constructing a big central position.Black's hope is that White's central installations will become unwieldy and vulnerable to a middlegame counter-attack.Grandmaster Nigel Davies, an Alekhine's Defence aficionado himself, has produced the ideal first primer on this dynamic system which will help you to start playing it straightaway - or, for white players, learn what to expect when someone plays it against you.Contents:- Classical with 4. ...Bg4- Classical Kengis System: 4. ...dxe5 5.
