good miniatures book

This is OOP, but is really just the "...with White" and "...with Black" books in one. There are more than 200 games, but they are embedded with many variations, some of them complete miniatures of their own. This increases the value of the book as an opening reference. Although the book is hardly exhaustive or current, a certain level of player ( The complete games also serve as a lesson in attacking chess, sort of like 'Art of Attack' or 'Art of the Checkmate' (although WQaC is not organized by attacking theme). In addition, by covering up the moves, you can use this book for tactical exercises. There aren't as many problems as in a typical exercise book, but the fact that they appear in the context of full games rather than isolated positions makes them more valuable.
