This volume provides a comprehensive overview, with 300 annotated games analyzed by the players and checked by powerful chess 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."-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Chess players $v Biography. 650 0 $a Chess $x History $y 19th century. 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft. 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240305042420.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20210508010058.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A4ECA55AAFC211EBAF585BBC28ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
