Houska examines the important tactical and strategic plans for both sides, arming the reader with enough information to begin playing the Caro-Kann with confidence in his or her own games.
Customer Reviews
Good paperback book, bad download
I heard a lot of positive reviews on this book and as a chess enthusiast with a strong interest in the Caro Kann as black I decided to take the leap and download this book. The paperback version of this book has 192 pages, but the version I downloaded has only 77 pages and of those pages, many of them have been left blank with errors. I feel like I have been ripped off! I am going to do what I can to get my money back from the ITunes store.
