Chess Rivals of the 19th Century
Author: Tony Cullen
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476639248
Category : Games & Activities
Languages : en
Pages : 477
Book Description
Many historical chess books focus on individual 19th century masters and tournaments yet little is written covering the full scope of competitive chess through the era. This volume provides a comprehensive overview, with more than a third of the 300 annotated games analyzed by past masters and checked by powerful engines. Players such as Max Lange and Cochrane, known to the chess public only by the name given to a fierce attack or gambit, are brought to life. Fifty masters are each given their own chapter, with brief biographies, results and anecdotes and an endgame section for most chapters.
