I will be interviewing Axel Smith about his new book The Woodpecker Method 2 – Positional Play. Do join me on Thursday 16th October at 17.00 (UK) for this live broadcast.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCoKK...
Axel’s previous book, The Woodpecker Method, featured tactical and calculating puzzles – and was a massive success with chess improvers. This second volume concentrates on positional play and I am sure will be equally well received.
You’ll find details of the book here: www.newinchess.com/the-woodpecker-method-2
