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."-Provided by publisher"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>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.
