French: MacCutcheon and Advance Lines - 2nd hand

French: MacCutcheon and Advance Lines deals with two of the most interesting and complicated lines of the French Defence. 

The MacCutcheon (1 e4 e6 2 d4 d5 3 Nc3 Nf6 4 Bg5 Bb4) is an important counter-attacking line which tournament players could reliably adopt as their main weapon against 1 e4. It has a pedigree going back to Marshall, Réti and Tarrasch.

The Advance Variation (3 e5) is essential knowledge for every player on the black side of the French Defence while its uncompromising features enables those using it from the white side to master one line with minimal study.

Both these variations are likely to be popular in the 1980’s as the resurgence of the French Defence continues. This thoroughly researched book should stimulate the development of new ideas and serve as a point of reference.
