Experts on the Anti-Sicilian includes articles from many writers, all but one of them grandmasters and all of them experts on their chosen topic.The anti-Sicilian lines, defined as 1.e4 c5 (but not the Open variations) are highly popular but rarely analysed in depth by very strong players. With Experts on the Anti-Sicilian we aim to put that right.
