1400-1600

Chess books intended for players who have gone beyond the basics. You know what the opposition is, you know the first 5 moves of your Spanish or Sicilian theory, and you understand that playing d5 in the Sicilian creates a hole on e5. But you still lose games in a seemingly simple way. This category is for you. The rating refers to official FIDE ratings, except for categories below 1600, which no longer exists in official tournament play. For those categories it refers to online rating.
