I've been experimenting with it and it seems not as good or systematic as I expected so I'm probably not getting the move order right. Thanks, Spurtus

I have only seen one book on Stonewall attack it put out by Chess Digest,written by GM Andrew Soltis, I saw the book for sale on www.amazon.com It was expensive I though for the book. I hope this helps you out. Good luck in future games. Thanks

Amazon is way too expensive though. I bought my copy at a local used bookstore for about $5.

Chess Opening tips -- Like many games of skill, chess is easy to learn and fun to play — but difficult to master. Although the goal is to checkmate the enemy king, don't expect an early knockout.

A Trove of Fischer Photographs Surfaces -- Photographs taken during trips that Bobby Fischer made to the Philippines in 1967 and 1973, after he became world chess champion, have appeared in a group of three videos on YouTube.
