There is a nice chapter from the author's preface (Dr Tarrasch) which is really interesting, with one chapter goings as follows: "Chess is a form intellectual productiveness, therein lies its peculiar charm. Intellectual productiveness is one of the greatest joys, if not the greatest one, of human existence. Its not everyone who can write a play, or build a bridge, or even make a good joke. But in chess everyone can, everyone must, be intellectually productive and so can share in this select delight. I have always a slight feeling of pity for the man who has no knowledge of chess, just as I would pity the man who has remained ignorant of love. Chess like love, like music, has the power to make men happy. The way to this happiness I have tried to show in this book." Dr Tarrasch, Munich, January 1931. A truly wonderful book ideal for chess lovers and historians of the beautiful game of chess.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. No Dust Jacket. First Edition. "The proud story of British justice is occasionally marred by shabby episodes where the national character falls below its accustomed standards of chivalry, honour and common sense. Examples include the burning of Joan of Arc, the trial and execution of King Charles I, and the court-martial and execution of Admiral Byng. To that list, I doubt not will be added in due course the War Crimes Trials that began with the Nuremberg International Military Tribunal on 20 November, 1945, and ended, so far as Great Britain was concerned, with the trial which is so well described in this volume. [The author] disregarding the earlier decisions of members of the British bar not to take part in the defence of enemy subjects accused of war crimes, was impelled by a sense of affronted justice, to place his invaluable services gratuitously at the disposal of the defence. His name will be remembered as a shining example of British chivalry and honour, and Mr. Sam Silkin, his legal English junior, will not be forgotten" - Foreword. xvi, 239 pp. Index. Black and white photo portrait of subject. Eight maps. Prior owner's name inside each board, otherwise tight and unmarked with moderate wear to original black cloth brightly lettered in gilt upon backstrip. No dust jacket. A sound example of this important history. Enser p.470, Chambers p. 282, Ziegler 410. Mentioned on pg. vii of Vol. 2 of The Veale File.; 8vo.…
