The History107.ctg opening book by Mike Scheidl is based on more than 16,000 master games from 1840-1946 (107 years, from Staunton to Alekhine).
It is intended to be a COMPACT representation of the opening practice in that era of the old masters, to browse their typical variations and to see the contrast to today's opening repertoires.
