Action Chess :Purdy's 24 hour opening repertoire This book is based on Purdys belief that he could teach chess players in 10 hours what they needed to know to get to a solid middlegame.This would free him to study middlegame tactics and endgames where the average players time is better spent.At about 1900, one would begin to study openings again. Thinkers Press updated Purdys magazine articles with some modern commentary by NM Wieck.
