New in Chess Yearbook 47 (Hardbound - Rare )

For sale is New In Chess Yearbook 47 — 1998 — Like New Condition — HardboundOne of the things that set the NIC Yearbook apart from every other opening publication was the way it treated its contributors as personalities, not just names attached to analysis. Yearbook 47 leans into that beautifully with two featured surveys that feel almost like portraits of the grandmasters who wrote them.Glek returns — and by now he is practically a fixture in these pages — but this time with something special. The cover bills it as "10 Years of Experience" with his 7...Na6 in the King's Indian, and that framing alone tells you this isn't just another theoretical article. This is a grandmaster looking back at a decade of practical results, refinements, and hard-won wisdom in a line he made his own. For anyone who plays the King's Indian or has to face it regularly, a survey like this is genuinely rare — the kind of accumulated specialist knowledge that simply does not exist anywhere else in print.Then Kupreichik steps in with what the cover aptly calls "Off the Beaten Track" — his 5...Bd7 in the Sicilian, a line that sidesteps mountains of mainline theory and heads into territory where creativity and understanding matter more than memorization. Kupreichik was always one of the most imaginative and unpredictable players of his generation, and his opening ideas tended to be just as original as his play.Alongside these two featured surveys the volume delivers more than 25 additional grandmaster opening surveys covering the full range of chess theory, with annotated games, specialist commentary, and the Forum section keeping the theoretical conversations from previous issues alive.Condition: Like New — hardbound, boards clean, pages bright and completely unmarked, binding firm throughout.
