Forlagets egen omtale

The beginning of the 20th century was a different time in chess. The World Champion was the German Emanuel Lasker, and tournaments took place in Paris, Monte Carlo, Cambridge Springs, and St. Peterburg. The key contestants were familiar names such as Pillsbury, Schlechter, Tarrasch, Marshall, Maroczy, Rubinstein, and many more.

Based on his popular blog series on Chess.com, Sam Kahn covers the first decade of the 20th century, where you get to meet all of the above characters and many more, read about the fascinating tournaments, what went on behind the scenes and see more than forty exciting games, carefully annotated by the experienced authors Cyrus Lakdawala and Carsten Hansen.
