2000 BCF Book of the Year: "The writing is clear and concise with flashes of humor. The material is well organized and the book is attractively laid out and printed. The impression is given that the author, who has deep knowledge of his subject, has held nothing back from the reader - this is how Sadler sees and plays the Queens Gambit Declined. A particularly valuable feature is the question and answer approach which is done in such a way that the reader feels he or she is receiving a personal tutorial from the Grandmaster. Queens Gambit Declined wins Book of the Year on its own considerable merits; but the judges also feel it has additional value as an example to future authors and publishers of openings books." - British Chess Federation
