The Marshall Attack. Black's Most Ambitious Weapon Against the Ruy Lopez.

The Ruy Lopez is incredibly common at every level of chess — and if you play 1.e4 e5 as Black, you need a reliable, fighting answer. Grandmaster Milos Pavlovic — a Lopez expert and former Yugoslav Champion — draws on years of experience to deliver a complete Black repertoire built around the legendary Marshall Attack.
