A thorough guide to two exciting variations of the Ruy Lopez, the most famous and traditional of all chess openings. Both the Archangel and the closely-related New Archangel (also known as the Moller Variation) see Black boldly challenging White for the initiative. Both lines lead to sharp play, in which both sides have winning chances. This book, the first on these systems, will be invaluable to players of both White and Black.
