This book gives you 50 wins that illustrate typical tactics and strategies for the White pieces. Your goal of the Evans Gambit is to control the center with your pawns and pieces. This gives you space and mobility to attack pieces and the weak f7 square near Black’s king. Many great masters used Evans Gambit such as Magnus Carlsen, Gary Kasparov, Bobby Fischer, and Paul Morphy. The Evans Gambit is a chess opening that can give you a big advantage as White. My hope is that with this book, you'll start winning more chess games than ever before! I pick two key positions from each game for a diagram. My plan is for you to browse through the book, look at the diagrams and read the comments easily. From time to time, I add a line of analysis. You may wish to work out some of those lines in your head, or just note that there was an alternative way to play and keep reading. I played chess for 50 years. I have written over 100 books. This book comes as a request from one of my readers. I assume that you can read algebraic chess notation. The diagrams have White at the bottom of the board. Thank you for reading my books. I hope you enjoy this one!
