Description

This is the book that every chess master and grandmaster has read and studied and every aspiring chess master should be reading. The author, a World Chess Champion, clearly explains the most complex and difficult concepts. Grandmaster Reuben Fine wrote that Alekhine's collection of best games was one of the three most beautiful that he knew. World Champion Garry Kasparov wrote, “Alexander Alekhine is the first luminary among the others who are still having the greatest influence on me. I like his universality, his approach to the game, his chess ideas. I am sure that the future belongs to Alekhine chess.” Bobby Fischer wrote, “He had great imagination. He could see more deeply into a situation than any other player in chess history. It was in the most complicated positions that Alekhine found his grandest concepts.” Chess Journalist Jerry Hanken writes, “The study of this book added 300 points to my rating and made me a master.”

Amazon's associates always seem to deliver expeditiously. This was a modest disappointment for me because in the course of rebuilding my decimated chess library, I am determined to select replacement volumes with modern Algebraic Notation (preferably the Internation Figurine Algebraic). Ishi Press basically reproduces the older original chess books exactly as they were published, in old English Descriptive Notation, original muddy diagrams, etc. I can read EDN, but I'd already acquired Ishi's 2nd and 3rd re-released volumes in the famous Alekhine trilogy, both of which had algebraic notation supplementary appendices to "translate" all the games. I guess Ishi "got the hint" when the current trend of re-releasing algebraic versions of classic chess books turned into a virtual flood. Too bad their Volume 1 of "My Best Games of Chess" was released sans algebraic supplement. Perhaps a re-re-release will see that welcome addition. Still, a superb classic by a great master.
