Former World Chess Champion Dr. Max Euwe traces the history of chess going through the games of the greatest players in history showing how the earliest recorded games show a wild attacking style. Later styles emphasized development, then pawn structure, then defensive play, then positional. Now primarily strategic planning is emphasized." ; waterstained at bottom fifth of book ; store stamp on front inside cover ; front endpaper corner-clipped ; a READING COPY only. Book.
