Starting Out: The Colle

The Colle

Published by Popular Chess

About The Book

The Colle is a solid, reliable system of development based on the popular opening move 1 d4. A major selling point is that although the system is very easy to learn and play it leads to complex, exciting middlegame positions where White often launches a violent attack against Black’s king.The Colle is a particular favourite amongst club players, but is often also seen at grandmaster level
