Frank Marshall (1877-1944) reigned as America's chess champion from 1907 through 1936. A colorful character with an ascot and a cigar, his career coincided with many changes in competitive chess. Marshall was a master gamesman, who claimed that after learning the game at 10 he played every day for the next 57 years. Marshall's life and playing style are fully examined here.
