Kibitzer's Corner
Mar-22-10  thegoodanarchist: There are detailed annotations of this game (in plain English, rather than in variations) in the book "Starting Out: The Nimzo-indian".

The author? Chris Ward, of course :D

Apr-14-16  SimplicityRichard: A brilliant book; a neglected masterpiece. My introduction into the Nimzo-indian. The piece is so well written it could be used by both White or Black players of the Nimzo ie. irregardless of whether you play on the White or Black side of the Nimzo-indian Defence.#
