Kornev: A Practical Black Repertoire with d5, c6. Volume 2: The Caro-Kann buchpakete Rather than chasing every openingVolume 2: The Caro Kann and Other Defences. Volume 2 deals in depth with the Caro Kann Defence 1. e4 c6 2. d4 d5 and various deviations for White as 1. e4 c6 2. d3; 2. Nc3; 2. c4. This part also analyses rare systems where White leaves the main roads, but Black remains true to the spirit of his conception for the centre, for instance, 1. c4 c6, 1. Nf3 d5 Kornev does not confine himself to dry variations, he also aptly explains the ideas behind them.
