«Técnica soviética del medio juego», de Peter Romanovsky (tapa blanda)

This Soviet Middlegame Technique by Peter Romanovsky is an English-language paperback chess book on middlegame play, bringing together planning and combinations in one volume.

What the book covers

Peter Romanovsky first published the work in 1929, then expanded and revised it into a more developed study of middlegame technique. Rather than focusing only on individual motifs, it helps the reader think through a position, build a plan and spot tactical chances.

This edition combines the two sections that were previously published separately in English: Planning and Combinations. The result is a fuller version of Romanovsky’s work for readers who want to study it independently or use it as part of a structured approach to classical chess study.

Publication history

Romanovsky completed the revised manuscript in 1942, during the Second World War, while he was trapped during the siege of Leningrad. The manuscript was lost, but he later reconstructed the work and finished it in 1960. This is a fresh translation of that combined edition.

It is a practical choice for players and coaches building a library of classic chess books, as well as for anyone returning to a trusted source on middlegame technique.
