Evans & Friends Vol.1 - The Evans Gambit

When the Evans Gambit appeared in the 19th century, one admirer called it a gift from the gods to a languishing chess world. Nearly two centuries later, IM Andrew Martin argues the gift is still well worth accepting.

Playable today? At the very top level, perhaps mainly as a surprise weapon – which leaves the other 99.99% of us free to enjoy it in full. The Evans produces exciting chess and teaches the art of attack.

This course is made for chess enthusiasts at the club level, who want to win with style and are not afraid of aggressive chess. In this first volume we dive into all important variations after back takes on b4: 5...Ba5 6.d4 d6 known as the Lasker's Defence, 5...Ba5 6.d4 exd4 and the less common 5...Bc5, 5...Bd6, 5...Be7 and the rare Evans Gambit Delined. 
Together with the second volume you get a full repertoire for 1.e4 e5.

Andrew Martin also wrote a book for New in Chess on this subject which appeared at the same time as this video course. Here you can find the details: https://www.newinchess.com/the-evans-gambit
