256 Seiten, kartoniert, Batsford Chess, 1996
Final vergriffen
Paul Keres was one of the greatest players in chess history, and a leading contender for the world championship for a third of a century.
His modesty, honesty and open-minded approach to chess made him popular with chess enthusiasts the world over. These qualities come over supremely well in his writing. He has neither axes to grind nor points to prove; he merely helps the reader understand the secrets of chess.
In this book, the first of two volumes covering his entire career, Keres charts his progress from his early days as a self-taught young talent to the end of the 1940s and his battles for the world title. During these years his play developed considerably, as he honed his flair for wild sacrificial tactics into an elegant, world-beating attacking style.
