Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1863 edition. Excerpt: ...felt, at separating himself, for so large a part of every year, from played, in connection with which the name of Dischaullis is first heard of.--.Chess MonthIy, vol. ii. pp. 58-59.) This is ascertained from his letters. The earliest date is in Fffhraary j in 01W he seys he cannot be m Paris until the ioth of June-, home, to which he clung so tenderly; and, in 1775, he spent his first season in London, under the new arrangement. There are circumstances which tend to show, that the considerate kindness of Philidor's English friends did not end with providing him a salary. The publication of the new edition of the Analyse, in 1777, appears to have been promoted by them, with a view to put into his hands an extraordinary sum at the beginning of his connection with the Club. The edition itself was dedicated "to the very illustrious and honourable Members of the Club," and the name of every member, without exception, appears upon the List of Subscribers. The personal exertion of the members to enlarge the List is evinced by the character of the names which were added to their own. We can fancy the Scotch Duke of Athol getting the name of the Scotch Duke of Argyle, and Charles Fox bantering Lord North into putting down his guinea. Gibbon, with his courtly smile and the tap on his snuff-box, may have won the support of Lady Di Beauclerk; and the activity of dear Mrs. Howe shall have (in my mind) the credit of so many of the fifty noble ladies, as did not subscribe in obedience to their husbands. As the French names do not exceed fifty--although these form a brilliant array--the inference is a very clear one, that the edition was especially an HABITS IN LONDON. 75 i affair of the English Club, and connected with their...

Book Synopsis The Bobby Fischer I Knew and Other Stories by : Arnold Denker
Download or read book The Bobby Fischer I Knew and Other Stories written by Arnold Denker and published by Ishi Press. This book was released on 2008-06 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grandmaster Arnold Denker - the Dean of American Chess, U. S. chess champion from 1944 to 1946, was the Runyonesque chronicler of the "guys and dolls" of the New York chess scene of the 1930s, and the man who treated personal friendship as a high art. No one meeting Arnold for the first time, however briefly, could doubt how he played the games of chess and life. You could see it. In his athletic build, in his well-tailored elegance, in how he chomped into one of his favorite, five-inch thick hot pastrami sandwiches at the old Applebaum's on New York's 7th Avenue - or, most impressively, in the way he crossed a street. For Grandmaster Denker did not just cross a street, he attacked it as he would an opponent's king. GM Denker played chess the way he crossed that street. His goal was nearly always to cross the center of the board on the way to his opponent's king. Some of his sorties were wing-and-prayer affairs, and they famously crashed. However, many of his tempestuous attacks, with their slashing assaults against enemy kings, did reach the other side of the board, producing victories and draws against the greatest players of his time.

Book excerpt: Netflix’s most watched limited series to date! The thrilling novel of one young woman’s journey through the worlds of chess and drug addiction. When eight-year-old Beth Harmon’s parents are killed in an automobile accident, she’s placed in an orphanage in Mount Sterling, Kentucky. Plain and shy, Beth learns to play chess from the janitor in the basement and discovers she is a prodigy. Though penniless, she is desperate to learn more—and steals a chess magazine and enough money to enter a tournament. Beth also steals some of her foster mother’s tranquilizers to which she is becoming addicted. At thirteen, Beth wins the chess tournament. By the age of sixteen she is competing in the US Open Championship and, like Fast Eddie in The Hustler, she hates to lose. By eighteen she is the US champion—and Russia awaits . . . Fast-paced and elegantly written, The Queen’s Gambit is a thriller masquerading as a chess novel—one that’s sure to keep you on the edge of your seat. “The Queen’s Gambit is sheer entertainment. It is a book I reread every few years—for the pure pleasure and skill of it.” —Michael Ondaatje, Man Booker Prize–winning author of The English Patient

Download or read book Paul Morphy written by David Lawson and published by University of Louisiana at Lafayette. This book was released on 2010 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Paul Morphy: The Pride and Sorrow of Chess" is the only full-length biography of Paul Morphy, the antebellum chess prodigy who launched United States participation in international chess and is still generally acknowledged as the greatest American chess player of all time. But Morphy was more than a player. He was a shy, retiring lawyer who had been taught that such games were no way to make a living. The strain of his fame and the pull of his domineering family led Morphy to set another precedent: chess madness. Morphy's mental descent after retiring from chess became a part of his lore, made all the more magnanimous by a spate of twentieth-century examples. "The Pride and Sorrow of Chess" tells the full known story of the life of Paul Morphy, from his privileged upbrining in New Orleans to his dominance of the chess world, to the later tragedy of his demise. This new edition of David Lawson's seminal work, still the principal source for all Morphy biographical presentations, also includes new biographical material about the biographer himself, telling the story of the author, his opus, and the previously unknown life that brought him to the research.
Book Synopsis Eminent Victorian Chess Players by : Tim Harding
Download or read book Eminent Victorian Chess Players written by Tim Harding and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-12-03 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book portrays British chess life in the nineteenth century through biographical studies of ten players who shaped the modern game. From Captain Evans, inventor of the famous gambit, to Isidor Gunsberg, England's first challenger for the world championship, personal narratives are blended with game annotations to reassess players' achievements and character. The author has combined deep reading in primary sources with genealogical research to reveal new facts and correct previous misunderstandings. Major chapters on Howard Staunton and William Steinitz, in particular, highlight the tensions between Englishmen and immigrants, amateurs and professionals. The contrasting long careers of Henry Bird and Joseph Blackburne provide a thread of continuity. The lives of several other important figures in Victorian chess are also presented. More than 160 games (with diagrams), several annotated in detail, and 50 photographs and line drawings are included. Appendices provide career records for all ten; there are extensive notes, a bibliography and indexes.
