First published in 1911, “Modern Chess Openings” (PDF) by Richard Clewin Griffith (1872–1955) and John Herbert White (1880–1920), has been called “the first scientific study of the openings in the twentieth century”.
In this 14th edition of the book, Nick de Firmain describes many opening strategies and variations of each opening. It’s not a book that is easy to read. Nor is it for the beginning chess player.
For instance, you need to have a good understanding of algebraic notation to even start to comprehend this book and even then it’s hard to follow.
