This book is an introduction to the Euwe Defense in the Blackmar Diemer Gambit, a most exciting attacking opening for White. The principal lines of play are analyzed with numerous examples, which are followed with a collection of illustrative games totaling one hundred entertaining models. Anders Tejler played this opening for many years and incorporates his experience and enthusiasm into the text. Put some excitement into your games with the Blackmar Diemer Gambit!!
The original edition of this work was a rare look at a major variation of the Blackmar-Diemer Gambit. Today there is much more information in print on this exciting line of play. However, this original work by Anders Tejler and Jim Marfia is still very useful as an introduction to this variation. Therefore the book has been translated from English Descriptive notation into algebraic for today's readers.
The original analysis has been retained intact. The principal change, other than notation, is the addition of supplemental games to reach a total of 101 examples in this variation. These games were largely drawn from the wonderful magazine BGD World, edited by Tom Purser, and Tim Sawyer's Blackmar-Diemer gambit keybook.
