Kosten concentrates on aggressive treatments of the English - an approach that has brought him great success in tournament play. His book provides everything you need to start attacking with the English Opening.
* By a skilful writer with many years of experience with the English

* Practical examples illustrate the key themes
"Kosten has a nice, readable style, and he has provided lots of discussion of thematic ideas" - Randy Bauer, Randy's Reviews
Grandmaster Tony Kosten comes from England, but has been based in France for many years. He is a regular and successful competitor in international tournaments, and is so respected in his adopted country that he has been appointed trainer for the French national team.
