The Dutch - Stonewall: Essentials (White Repertoire)

By Theo van Stratum

A White repertoire for meeting the (Modern) Stonewall Dutch (1.d4 f5 2.g3 Nf6 3.Bg2 e6 4.Nf3 d5 5.O-O Bd6, Black's solid pawn-chain treatment with pawns on d5, e6 and f5), organised by approach. Includes the central Main Line, direct queenside pressure with an early Qb3, the Ba3 plan to trade off Black's good bishop, and an early e4 break.
