Jim West in Kaissiber Article…
November 13, 2007 · Print This Article
I bought a few copies of the great German Openings magazine Kaissiber from the USCF. It’s put out by Stephan Brucker. He also writes articles on chesscafe.com. In the April-June 2007 issue there is an article on the Philidor Counter Gambit that mentions Jim West’s book on that opening. See the highlight on page three.
Hello Atomic Patzer !
I am dusting off a hard bound copy of Langenscheidt’s New College German Dictionary so I can decipher some of Kaissiber German Opening’s Magazine that is posted on your blog. Now if only I can remember some of the German Grammar and German Sentence structure I was taught in high school, Der, Das, Die.
Diamondback - Me too. My German used to be pretty good. Originally I’m from Austria and my family all speak and write to me in German. I can pretty well understand them but I can’t recall vocabulary or sentence structure any more. The last time I used these language skills was when I was in the Army and stationed in Germany. Now I’m looking to take a refresher course. Then maybe translate some of these articles. This is how chess broadens us.
