Two great books from the Everyman Chess Library, Starting Out: The Nimzo Indian by Chris Ward and Starting Out: The Queen's Indian by John Emms, brought together in one volume.

The Nimzo-Indian is one of the soundest and most popular defences against 1 d4, offering Black the chance to unbalance the game early on and play for a win without undue risk. Advocates include virtually all of the world's top players, including Garry Kasparov, Vladimir Kramnik, Vishy Anand and Anatoly Karpov. In this revolutionary book, Grandmaster Chris Ward revisits the basic principles behind the Nimzo-Indian and its many variations. Throughout this easy-to-read guide the reader is helped along by a wealth of notes, tips and warnings from the author, while key strategies, ideas and tactics for both sides are clearly illustrated. This book is ideal for the improving player.

The Queens Indian is one of Black's most dependable and respected defences to the queen's pawn opening. It is an established favourite amongst world-class Grandmasters such as Vladimir Kramnik, Vishy Anand, Michael Adams and Judit Polgar, not to mention Anatoly Karpov, who has been a loyal Queens Indian supporter and theory developer for over three decades. Rather than classically occupying the central squares with pawns, Black adopts a hypermodern approach and endeavours to control this key area with pieces. This procedure leads to rich and varied positions that will appeal to players who like complex play. In this easy-to-read guide, Grandmaster and Queens Indian expert John Emms goes back to basics, studying the essential principles of the Queens Indian and its numerous variations. Throughout the book there are an abundance of notes, tips and warnings to guide the improving player, while key strategies, ideas and tactics for both sides are clearly illustrated.

Great design and size for an evening bag!
This PU leather bag is perfect for dressy occasions. I love the design and the size. The closure on the front is very unique. I don't need a purse like this often, but I like to have a few basic colors on hand for when I do need one. I didn’t have a gold bag so I ordered that color to add to my evening bag collection. I really am happy with this bag and have used it a couple of times already. This bag seems to be well made and durable. I haven't noticed any issues with it so far. I prefer the top handle but I like that a shoulder strap is included, although I haven't used it yet. The front closure is such a neat design. I really like the weave design of the rest of the bag too. The size is just right for what I like to carry in an evening bag. Some bags are too small and I can't even fit my phone in them. The size of this bag accommodates my phone, a small wallet, a small pack of tissues, and my lipstick. I think the price is good for the quality. I am very glad I ordered this bag. I recommend this bag as an affordable option for a nice quality evening bag. I don't yet know how well it will hold up over time, since I haven't had the opportunity to use it much yet. However, I don't anticipate having any problems. I will update this review if I obtain more insightful information in the future.
