Neil McDonald's French Winawer covers a wide range of material including not only the main lines after 1.e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3.Nc3 Bb4 4.e5 c5 5.a3 Bxc3+ 6.bxc3 Ne7, but also 5...Ba5 and 4...Qd7. It even spends some time on White 4th move alternatives like 4.Ne2 and 4.a3. One hundred and forty four pages is not that much space for an opening as complex as the Winawer, so McDonald wisely focuses his attention on lines that are currently in vogue (7.Qg4 is almost half the book). The French Winawer is good for bringing things up to date and as an introduction to the opening, but hardcore French players will want to use it in conjunction with other works.
