Requirements: .PDF reader, 76.1 MB
Overview: Chess, perhaps the most internationally popular pastime , is a fascinating subject for study. This book sets out, in an entertaining a manner as possible, to follow all the intricacies of the colourful history of the game.
With innumerable illustrations in black and white and full colour accompanying the very lively text, even the non-player could not fail to be fascinated by this History from its obscure beginnings in the mysterious East, with all the intrigue associated with its evolution , into the game as we know it today.
The editor of the English edition, Mr. B.H. Wood, has written a special chapter on the Anglo-Saxon aspects of the game, as well as devoting a considerable amount of time and energy to the revision of the original text, and the end product, which you hold before you, must surely be a tribute to his efforts.
