From's Gambit

For Sale is the book “How to Play the From Gambit” by Eric Schiller is a chess book that explores an exciting alternative to the main lines of 1.f4. Henry Bird’s 1.f4 has become the choice of many chess players who wish to avoid the voluminous theory surrounding 1.e4, 1.d4, and even 1.c4. If Black plays passively, they may find themselves in an inferior line, especially if they allow a reversed Dutch defense. However, there is an exciting alternative – the From Gambit! With 1…e5, Black makes it clear that they are willing to fight. The lines that arise often involve forced piece sacrifices for both sides, and knowledge of middle game ideas is critical.In this monograph, Eric Schiller presents a state-of-the-art report on the opening, along with explanations aimed at the average player. He also provides many new ideas. Schiller examines both ancient sources and the latest tournament and correspondence games, including some from obscure sources that have not found their way into the body of published theory. Feel free to explore this fascinating gambit and enhance your chess repertoire!
