NOTE: THIS BOOK IS WRITTEN ENTIRELY IN GERMAN
This is Henry Grob's groundbreaking work written in German on the move 1. g2-g4. The Grob opening is a very dangerous opening to both the white and black sides in chess. The 1. g2-g4 opening was named after the true Renaissance man Henry Grob, a portrait painter, newspaper columnist, and international chess master.Henry Grob had outstanding results in several chess tournaments during the nineteen-twenties through the nineteen-fifties. In 1937 he tied for first through third places with the world championship contenders Grandmaster Reuben Fine and Grandmaster Paul Keres in Ostend. Also in 1947 and 1948, he came in second through fourth places behind Grandmaster Laszlo Szabo in Hastings. In 1951 he finished tenth place at the Bad Pyrmont World Championship Zonal which was won by Grandmaster Svetozar Gligoric.
