A Review of Christian Bauer's The Philidor Files
We recently had a prolonged discussion on the site of the Philidor Counter-Gambit (start here and work your way backward), but that's just a (disreputable?) sideline in an opening that can count stars like Azmaiparashvili, Bacrot and Nisipeanu among its adherents. A new, excellent book on the great Frenchman's contribution is GM Christian Bauer's The Philidor Files, and you can read my review here. (Originally published in Chess Today.)
