Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Supplement to the Synopsis Containing American Inventions in the Chess Openings HE Editor does not assume to be an analyst of Chess apart from the army of Chess players who have given thought and study to the Openings, and played them for many years. The body of analysis in the German Handbuch is the product of ten thousand minds; and the best analysts have not been infallible, as witness the declaration of Howard Staunton that the Sicilian was the best Opening for the second player. The Chess Openings come and go out of fashion without much regard for individual preferences; and they stand on shifting ground, sometimes strengthened temporarily by a new line of play, and again laid on the shelf as the novelty is fully dissected and its weak points made known. It is certainly desirable to put on record all noteworthy ideas in the Openings; and this is the aim of the Editor, especially for those originating on this side of the Atlantic. Space will also be given to the freshest foreign analysis Nearly three years have elapsed since the third edition of Cook's Synopsis was published. Since its appearance there have been memorable International Chess Congresses in London, Vienna, and Nuremberg, and several Chess matches between the great Masters. The proof reading has been carefully supervised, the Editor regarding this as one of the vital things in the publication of these works. His warm thanks are due to many American lovers of Chess for valuable suggestions and assistance in collecting material.
