Need an aggressive system against the Sicilian? Introduced by Sozin, popularized by Fischer, and played by Grandmasters, correspondence players, OTB players, and computers, the Sozin is a sharp, tactical, and forceful response to the Sicilian. With White's bishop hitting Black's weak point on f7, and able to castle either to the Queenside or the Kingside, White is ready to set up his attacks. This book of over 2700 short games (many with annotations and diagrams, and all complete), plus opening indexes, provides a wealth of games and analysis to help you learn the systems against the Classical, Najdorf, and Dragon variations, and avoid the traps that can ensnare both sides. The miniatures are easy to play over; no game is over 25 moves. Mr. Escalante earned his Candidate Master's Title in 1992 and was the editor of Rank & File from 1995 to 1997. His games have appeared in Rank & File, The Los Angeles Times, The Orange County Register, Chess Life, and other publications.
