“It’s quite amazing – and a testament to the quality of the chess book market at the moment – to see this sort of analytical work published like this while the lines are still fresh. A really good opening book – 4 stars!”
GM Matthew Sadler, New in Chess
“It’s not easy to find an opening that has never been covered but English International Master Richard Pert comes close with Playing the Ragozin… Pert is very thorough and does a terrific job of presenting the best theoretical lines for Black… Playing the Ragozin is a first rate effort that will prove of interest to anyone looking for a defense to 1.d4.”
IM John Donaldson
“Overall this is an opening book that I like very much… Even in the quiet variations the author always finds ways to save the game from the complete drying out… As with all Quality Chess publications, there is also an abundance of innovations, so I highly recommend this book to everyone!”
IM Dirk Schuh, Rochade Europa
