Inhaltsangabe

Now in its 2nd editiion, The Dogs of War - Practical Play in the Colle System, is a collection of over 180 chess games from club, tournament and correspondence players featuring the Colle System, a dynamic and popular opening system. The players range in playing ability from Class E to Grandmaster, and the majority of these games are not likely to be found anywhere else because they were submitted to the authors from the players themselves. This book is not a treatise on theory nor is it a how-to-play-the-opening book. Rather, it is a collection of practical games as they are being played by proponents and opponents of the opening with varying levels of skill and experience.

Critics of the opening have stated that it is ineffective and that it is popular only because White can avoid having to learn volumes of opening theory. This book champions the Colle System by telling its story in a way that is more persuasive than its critics’ attack on it.
