Description
Paul Keres states in his preface that “I sought to complicate positions as much as possible as I feared that a position struggle might become boring.” As a result of this philosophy, Keres is recognised as one of the boldest and most exciting of players.
In this selection of his 90 best games between 1931 and 1948, Keres’ unorthodox theories are clearly demonstrated. Fred Reinfeld has chosen and annotated the outstanding games from a career that includes encounters with Alekhine, Bogolyubov, Botvinnik, Capablanca, Euwe, Najdorf, Fine, Reshevsky, Smyslov, and other great masters. Reinfelds’ notes are easily comprehensible to the amateur chess player, but amateur and expert will profit from the study of the attack, openings, mistakes, and sacrifices of leading players.
Condition: Fair, with front cover creased. Descriptive Notation.
