An opening that is very popular at the moment has finally gotten a
good book (..) A real standard work.--B. H. Wilders "Nederlands
Dagblad"
Encyclopedic in scope, offering readers a complete London-style
repertoire, and often with multiple options (..) An objective book
that maps out numerous paths forward for the Londoneer.--John
Hartmann "ChessLife Magazine (US)"
If you want to sharpen your repertoire with the London System, this
is your book.--Florian Jacobs "Max Euwe Centre, Amsterdam"
Most readers will welcome the fact that the authors have included a
wide variety of alternatives, and looked at them with such a
critical eye. The London is no longer a plodders 'system, as with
so much GM interest it's becoming as critical as many erstwhile
noble openings. This will be the reference work on the complete
London System for years to come.--Glenn Flear, Grandmaster
This one easily has the more in-depth coverage [than 'Winning with
the Modern London System']. There are recommendations against all
of Black's replies (..) The book concludes with a very interesting
chapter on the Pereyra Attack. It is easy to see this sort of rapid
attack working like clockwork at club level.--Sean Marsh "CHESS
Magazine (UK)"
