A propos de cet article

[1958 edition], 2nd printing ; xxi, 225 pages : illustrations ; 20 cm.; LC: GV1451; Dewey: 794.1; LCCN: 58-9801 ; OCLC: 221505530 ; ISBN: 0486244296 ((pbk.)); 9780486244297 ((pbk.)) ; pictorial black, orange, grey and white stiff paper wrappers ;"Original publication . 1933"--Preface. ; "This rich book distills the experience gained during one of the most brilliant chess careers of our time - a career that has been distinguished equally in chess play and in chess analysis. Lessons from My Games combines the best of Reuben Fine the famous grandmaster, who has been a top contender in many of the century's greatest tournaments, with the best of Reuben Fine the writer, whose matchless books have been landmarks in chess history. Here are Fine's games with World Champions Capablanca, Alekhine, and Euwe, with Dake, Horowitz. Flohr, Kashdan, Tartakower, Lasker, Botvinnik, Reshevsky, and other masters. Here are scintillating games of ten-second blindfold chess, at which Fine is sensational. And perhaps most important for both the amateur and professional, here in generous profusion are Fine's incisive notes and comments on every game, with searching discussion of alternatives, blunders, brilliancies, and turning points. Here, indeed, are not only. the outstanding games of a great career but the lessons from the games, drawn as only Fine could draw them. All this would be enough, but this book offers something else as well, for enlivening the accounts of the matches and tournaments in which he played are Reuben Fine's personal impressions of his great antagonists. As an observer of human nature, he is entertaining and astute, and he shows how the ability to take a foe's psychological measure can help to win. Reuben Fine has been a member of three U. S. World Championship Teams. He tied for first prize with Keres in the great AVRO tournament of 1938 and has won the U. S. Speed Championship four rimes. Among his famous books are The Ideas Behind the Chess Openings, The Middle Game in Chess, Basic Chess Endings, Practical Chess Openings, and his great and continuing best seller, Chess the Easy Way." ; "Reuben Fine was an International Grandmaster and one of the world's greatest chess players ever. His books, including 'Basic Chess Endings' and 'The Middlegame in Chess,' are among the all-time classics of chess literature."; Formerly entitled "lessons from my games" ; front cover and front endpaper corner-clipped ; store stamp on inside front cover ; else G.…
