Burgess book: "Winning With the Smith-Morra Gambit" seems to be out of print. Is there any other good book on the gambit?

The latter takes some time getting into but is worth the effort and after a few mishaps has got me some got results here.
Both are available from www.chessdirect.co.uk who give 10% discount for any order of 2 or more books.
Originally posted by Dragon FireI have this book.
I have both "The Modern Morra Gambit" by Hannes Langrock and
Essential for the SMG specialist. It explains all the key moves & variations in a very down-to-earth way, as well as the defences & sidelines.
It helps you understand the opening, rather than just bashing-out the moves regardless of what black is up to, as so many (even 2000+ players) seem to fall victim to.
Buy it.
