Grossmeister Repertoire 3 - Die Englische Eroffnungern by Mihail Marin

This Grossmeister Repertoire 3 - The English Opening by Mihail Marin is a German-language chess opening book for players who want to build a White repertoire around the English Opening, with a clear focus on 1.c4 e5 and the practical ideas that arise from it.

What this book covers

This volume is part of the Grossmeister Repertoire 3 series, a theoretical opening project built around main-line repertoire work by strong grandmasters. Rather than listing moves in isolation, it aims to help you construct a repertoire that is useful in both club play and tournament preparation.

Here, Mihail Marin presents his own White repertoire in the English Opening. The book covers play after 1.c4 e5, while the next volume continues the repertoire against Black’s other replies to 1.c4. Marin updates the theory, introduces new ideas and explains how to handle the resulting positions in a way that is easy to apply over the board.

Why choose this volume?

• White repertoire work based on 1.c4 e5
• Material drawn from lines tested in practice against grandmasters
• Modern treatment of opening theory
• Strong emphasis on understanding positions, not just memorising moves
• Written by Mihail Marin
