Play the Noteboom - 2nd hand

The Noteboom variation of the Queen's Gambit (1 d4 d5 2 c4 c6 3 Nc3 e6 4 Nf3 dxc4) is one of the most uncompromising and exciting defences to the queen's pawn. Black steals a pawn, intending to rapidly activate his pieces and develop a queenside initiative while White wastes time restoring material equilibrium. Play becomes very double-edged, and the better prepared player enjoys excellent chances of success.

This book, the first major monograph on the Noteboom, explains the main ideas and variations through the use of 47 illustrative games. The authors, both of whom are great specialists in the Noteboom, provide a wealth of interesting material that will be of great value to players wishing to play the Noteboom or Anti-Noteboom as White or Black.
