Need a book or a good chapter in a book on pawns
Sort:
<p>Since i reached 1500 the other i am going to study 2 books: My System and Chess tactics for the advanced player by Averbakh. No. I am NOT advanced and will keep on with my Susan polgAr books and tactics trainer, etc. Now I need to add something else to the mind stretching study group: a book or a good chapter in a book on PAWNS. I know that soltis' and Kmoch 's books on pawns are beyond me right now, but can anyone suggest an easier book or even a good chapter in a book that would help me with pawns and pawn structure?

Understanding Pawn Play in Chess by Marovic has positive reviews on amazon.com.
Thanks. I looked at the reviews on amazon and both his books sound good. I'm wondering if anyone on the forum has had any personal experience with his books or if they might suggest other books.

Is that one better Pawn Power in Chess by Kmoch? I have the latter and while I haven't done an in depth study, it seems to be a bit hard to go through (especially with making up his own terms)
ah haha. I have a problem with always trying to make jokes.
pawns...let's see what do you want to know about them?
There's 16 of them total. They inch forward. When they move, they open/close lines. They guard key squares. They support other pieces in times of exchange. They can promote. There are passed pawns, backwards pawns, isolated pawns, and pawn chains. There's the "square of the pawn". You know all this already though. What is it, good sir, that you are looking for?

How about videos? Since you are a diamond member here, check out Daniel Rensch's "Pawn Structure 101" videos. There are a bunch of them, and you can find them in this list: http://www.chess.com/video/library.html?author=ACEChess .
