The Grand Prix Attack is one of White’s most enterprising weapons against the Sicilian Defence, and a favourite among club players and Grandmasters alike. This is an opening that must be treated with both caution and respect.

This DVD will provide you with a comprehensive repertoire that explores all of Black’s ideas against the Grand Prix set up.
